I finaly picked this up today.
I thought you fellows might like to see what it looked like welded up.

Haaa. They're just fine for roughing in.

Weld the plug hole, drill for small on, closer to the new seats?

No I am going to braze in the bowls like the test heads.
But first I need to fidn some better rods.

Remember this...

nice beads. you want small chamber? so you use a larger chamber to start and you can lay beads out. Easier than to start with a 14cc?

Suprise!!!!
There is always a reason behind every picture.

And stuff today.

A work in progress

How did you shape the relief's around the valves? Sure looks a lot better than mine I did with die grinder bits and drum rolls.

-quite an amazing work in progress! I wasn't sure where you were headed with this at first but that is a real nice job.

Dremel and elbo grease.
Thats very early BTW, just a rough cut.
Its a little cleaner now.
Having a cup of tea now and heading to the shop to do a little more.
Might post some pictures later tonight.

That is beyond impressive, good for you!

 

[Newoldstock]

Not done more work before I polish and turn my attention to the ports valve job.

 

[Stangrcr1]

Starting to look like some heart shaped chambers I remember from high performance small block Chev and Ford engines...

Looks more like ET saying " HOME ".....

That is more or less the final shape of it
Started work on the ports now.

Estimate on your goal for the compression ratio? If that makes sense.

I don't know yet.

As it sits by my calculations it has about 4cc of aluminum added.
IU would like to get that down to around 16cc for around 11:1 compression

I think this is the final product less the valve and port work yet to come.
