Never had to deck plate a block to install pistons but here we are. 2019 GT350 voodoo block. Without the deck plate piston to cylinder wall tolerance was .0003β. Feel free to read that again π. With the deck plate wall clearance jumped to .0011β. This is an OEM plus rebuild due to oil pressure failure. New OEM ford block had one cylinder .0005β smaller than the rest. Talking with Ford engineers allow for a .001β hone. I think we got very lucky that weβre within tolerance now. Minimum spec for wall clearance is .0006β
The only guy in town with 6mm hardware. Itβs not the size of the boat, itβs the motion of the ocean. π Honda L15 head getting some fresh TMC. We also have a solution for heads warped beyond 4 thousandths that prevents cam/crank correlation codes.
Just seats and guides, we have another full of valve stem seals. π
