: I want to buy one of those liquid holding tools
: used to cc combustion chambers. I think it's
: called a 'burette'. I was talking with a
: machine shop about doing the final 45 degree
: seats when I get done porting my /6 head,
: and they said they would charge FORTY
: DOLLARS to measure EACH CHAMBER!!! Well
: needless to say, I said something equivalent
: to "no". $69 to grind the seats is
: more than enough. Besides, if I had my own
: tool, I could cc all the chambers, plus use
: it on other engine projects whenever I
: wanted. How much do these things usually
: cost? Thanks.

: I have to do that to my head too, so I can
: calculate my final compression ratio. I got
: a piece of lexan and drilled a small hole it
: in and put some grease around the chamber to
: stick it water tight.poked a spark plug in
: there, and grabbed a "horse"
: syringe from my local Feed/Hay store. Total
: out of pocket cost $10, and I had to tell
: the clerk I was using it for my own habit...
: *grin*
