…..ported to clean up the casting irregularities, have the decel valves soldered shut, and have the leading edge of the piston chamfered to fit the opening. This will likely start some further debate about my (and Rhys's) modifications being no good.
Which are Rhys’ mods?.
Chamfering the leading edge of the piston doesn’t increase the airflow or horsepower at all, but some say it improves throttle response.
the proof is sitting in the bank as cash I didn't spend on fuel on this trip.
The only things that your good trip mpg tells me is that 1. Your exhaust ports are vastly improved over standard. 2. Your SUs are running OK & the BBB needles are somewhat close.
I could taper the throttle shafts, but this is not a race engine.
Then why did you choose to use expensive race engine conrods & pistons?
