So you have a piece of stock for the intake height. It's about 18mm wide. You used a ring in the bore......measured the height and cut it. Right?

Now......you put it in the bore.

Then drop a piston in. I'm using a crappy no-name aftermarket piston because I'm doing this in a bore that has rough edges. If you just have a good piston, de-bur the rough port edges, and clean the jug of chips etc.

The bottom of that piston is at 80° on this build (not at 82° as the specs say).

So.......I mark it with a nice sharp pencil.

Do AM pistons vary much in height compared to OEM pistons?

I like how you get a mark for the intake. :beer-toast1:

I just put my good eye on it in the past, would get me close, but hard to be exact

Ima show y'all a trick.

Gotta have a degree wheel on the engine to figure stuff out to begin with......but once these heights are established it's on. :D

My spec sheet on the MS460.

These are older specs........but this sheet was already in PDF, and is for an 1128 series.

So.......

Use this video to learn how to set height using the wheel and a piece of card stock.


Now.......
Back-ground music sounded like Stevie Ray Vaughn.....flooding down in Texas. At first I thought it was Jimi Hendrix.
