Well the silence is deafening on this one! Usually a sign of a silly question
The figures I'm worried over are so miniscule that they aren't worth worrying about.
I'm ok about looking silly while looking for answers, much better imo than looking silly after fucking things up
Cylinders getting boxed tonight and heading away for cutting to one supplied length.
I don't really know if my answer will be correct but wouldn't you cut them all the same length otherwise one side will have a different deck height and compression than the other side, only by a small amount obviously unless there was something amiss of course.
But you probably knew that anyway.
Hi tufty
I just realised my first post doesn't contain all the info needed for anyone to give an answer! I posted in my build thread the other day about where my problem is.
I have .11mm more deck on 1+2 than on 3+4. That is from the crank centre line being slightly off centre I guess.
This is the reason I wanted 2 cylinders cut to suit 1+2 and 2 cylinders cut .11mm longer for 3+4 so both sides end up with equal deck heights.
There's a puffteenth between 1+2 and 3+4 also but close enough to not be concerned with. I mocked each rod/piston/location to get matching pairs as close as possible.
I have had a few emails and private messages from a couple of guys here who have helped me decide what to do, thanks guys for the help
So I'm getting 2 cut to suit 1+2 and 2 cut to suit 3+4 to make both sides equal.
Hope that makes sense, I'm confusing myself just typing it
