Slant Six Forum :: A cheap and accurate way to cc your /6 head!

: Awhh...come-on...you mean your computer does
: not have that "copy / paste"
: key...mine does, so heres Tim_K's info: DD
:
: I just found a cheap and easy way to cc my /6
: combustion chambers. Thought I'd share it
: with everyone. I found a scientific supply
: store in the yellow pages, and ordered a 100
: ml (same as cc) plastic graduated cylinder,
: and a squeeze bulb with a tube on it (called
: a pipette aid). Total cost of $15.20 . 6
: days from putting the money order in the
: mail to FedEx handing me the box, and that's
: over the Labor Day weekend! The cylinder has
: a little spout at the top, so you can pour
: water with it if you want to. The squeeze
: bulb takes 15 drops of water to move the
: water level 1 cc (ml) in the cylinder, so
: accuracy should be very good with it. You'll
: need to add a short piece of flexible clear
: tubing to the suqeeze bulb to reach the
: bottom of the cylinder, which is about 1
: inch in diameter and about 10 inches tall.
: You'll also need your own piece of
: plexiglass to seal the chamber you're
: measuring.
: Price breakdown: Cylinder, $5.25, squeeze bulb,
: $ 3.95, and $6.00 for S&H. They said that is
: the minimum price for S&H, and should be
: sufficient to go anywhere in the USA for
: that amount.
: Here's what to do: Call (724) 872-9383, or
: (412) 751-4415. Ask for Part # 4861-D 100 ml
: plastic graduated cylinder, and # 5829
: pipette aid (squeeze bulb thing).
:
: Here's their address: S & S Scientific
: Supply Co. Inc.
: 320 Highland Drive
: Elizabeth, PA, 15037
:
: After one machine shop told me $40 to cc the
: first chamber and $25 for each one after
: that, I said NO WAY. A second shop had a
: better but still too expensive price. With
: this stuff, you can cc heads until you can't
: stand it anymore for one low price!

Go to <A HREF="http://www.slantsix.com">www.slantsix.com</A> and read it in the tech talk section. I've already typed it twice and don't want to do it 3 times. In short, $15 gets you all you need if you know where to look!
