Hi Volerdon I didn't want to play around too much this time around. When the time comes, I'll take it off the block. My last slant was 11:1 with 46cc chambers and I had to control ping with water meth injection over 4k, was originally set up for propane (lpg).
Hay BUCKET 636 if that's a pic of your old car, that's what it looks like now (above), new paint, interior and stainless. The skull on the bonnet now lives in the glove box!
11:1 is great. I'd like to get close to 10 static CR with water injection , emphasis on torque and fuel economy.

What I'd like to see is a series on welding a **small** quench pad that I'd use with dished zero deck pistons.

That technology has been around for quite a while and used by many to repair as well as modify cast iron heads, and has really seen advances in recent years. Creating a quench style chamber is only going to improve the engine performance. I posted a 3D model some years back for a prototype Slant chamber I was considering to incorporate in an aluminum head I was toying around with.

Hi All
I did nick a couple of seats but nothing a polish and lapping couldn't fix. Now on engine, just have to get the rest sorted out.
Cheers
