Author Message   Alessio66xb12r Posted on Tuesday, September 25, 2007 - 08:30 am:        who know the squish band correct size for a race engine and for a street engine. xb 88'' 10.5 c.r. cp pistons , 15° degrees comb. chambers ??? any help welcome bye Alessio   Blake Posted on Tuesday, September 25, 2007 - 03:31 pm:        Not sure there is a "correct" size. The heads need to match the pistons is the main thing.   Alessio66xb12r Posted on Tuesday, September 25, 2007 - 03:52 pm:        "correct size" i mean ...values you must stay between for no knocking symptoms. i think , but i'm not sure , with this kind of heads/pistons combination 0.035 ( around 0.8/0.9 mm)is the correct size. i said ....i'm not sure. any input will be appreciated thank you all Alessio   Pammy Posted on Friday, September 28, 2007 - 12:52 pm:        .030 is optimum. .035 is fine.   Alessio66xb12r Posted on Friday, September 28, 2007 - 05:36 pm:        thank you very much i got 0.035 ( the heads gaskets size).. ...so i'm fine. thank's again Pammy   Pammy Posted on Friday, September 28, 2007 - 06:28 pm:        The proper way to measure is to put clay on the dome of the piston and turn the motor over(with the motor bolted)...then measure the clay. Then you are not guessing. You will know exactly the clearance you have.

We prefer clay, but a lot of folks use solder or plastiguage.   Alessio66xb12r Posted on Tuesday, October 02, 2007 - 07:17 am:        thank's again i did'nt " closed" the engine yet because i did a wrong gap on one ring . i waited until yesterday for a new one. today i'm going to finish it ....i'm new on this practice but i love to do myself and learning on. pics will follow... bye Alessio   Pammy Posted on Tuesday, October 02, 2007 - 01:02 pm:        Good luck to you. If you need any help, we are all here. Pam   Alessio66xb12r Posted on Friday, October 05, 2007 - 08:24 am:        i'll show some pics soon thank you again
