Thanks
I understand that. But placing a call to confirm they actually "forgot" to angle mill may save you a 75 mile trip. My entire point being that certainly they didn't forget to angle mill! I don't know the math, but it would seem alot of material was taken off the surface to get chambers down to 58cc. I understand that they can angle mill the head surface to minimize the change to intake alignment, but is that enough without also milling the intake surface? Only their machinists would know that.
As I said, I would ensure their heads are perfectly machined before going on to other issues.
Best of luck.
Gotcha, and good point! I really don't understand the arts of milling, but learning fast the hard way. I will be calling them Mon. A.M. also calling TPIS. I guess I thought just taking meat off the bottom of the heads would simply drop the heads without changing the angle. Obviously not so! Assuming the problem is the intake.
And to think we do this for relaxation and enjoyment!!!
