Dave,

Its a stocker exception being .030 stock pistons, and single steel shim gaskets which measures .019", if memory serves.

What I don't know is how much was taken off when deck and head surfaces were "cleaned" up, and that's what I'm trying figure out the how's and where's to measure.
Is there a standard amount taken off when just cleaning the sealing surfaces?

Opinions welcomed from you 109 guru's.


Thanks,
Jerry
