block and head machining questions

[bmxmon]

awesome, sounds like a good idea. So get it decked to .00, and run a .04 gasket. Can they deck it with the pistons and crank in, or is it best to take it out after test fitting it?? I would think it would be better for me just to have them measure it, so its 100% accurate. Also, how do i measure what size combustion chambers i have, since i will get the heads plained i would guess that would change the size. thanks, i didnt even think about decking the block. My brother in law did that to his race car, and he whopped ass, lol. He did alot of stuff thats kinda funny though, things in the gray of the rule book. Like his compression was really high, so he had to run race gas,(or airplace or something) but the rule book said that he had to run regular or something, so he just mixed it, since it didnt say how much regular they had to run,lol.
