Cylinder hight
08 May 2014 22:45
im going to install my Wiseco 1197cc this week but after some measuring I found out that the cylinder was 1.3mm lower than a 'stock' cylinder.........
Do i just mount everything as normal or would people mount an extra lower cylinder gasket??
Anyone knowing what the minimum hight is??
Im running the K410 cams as well

I think youll need to run a spacer to get it back to proper deck height.

Carefully dry build the top end without any gaskets and measure the squish with some solder.
Be careful when rotating the crank of marking the piston crowns if they come up high enough to contact the head.
If you have any sort of clearance the squashed solder can the measured to tell you how much you have and then you can work out what arrangement of gaskets and spacers are needed to get the correct clearance and compression.
If you have no clearance then you will need to start with some gaskets of known thickness installed and go from there.
