Kinda yeah, kinda no, Jeff. I never really understood why they put that rule in there. Btw, its gone from this years rules. Even at .035 quench everything I have built still has a combustion chamber mark on the piston. I dont feel comfortable running them any tighter.

All I was saying was, since you have to have a minimum quench distance, for max compression its better to have that distance be of as small a bore as possible.
