How to Reduce Blow-By? (modded engine question)

please ignore above post as i answered after the first page not seeing 3 additional pages.

My Answer :

File piston ring. ---------To accommodate for the increased compression for .380" cam lift.

Today is a day filled with unpresidented stupidity, yet you've managed to eclipse much of it, and even your own worrisome past. Congratulations, and may The FSM have mercy on your soul.

That engine must be making some power now!

FPM...you're killin' me Brutha!:laugh:

I'm gonna refrain judgement until he tells us all how he files the ring gap without engine disassembly.

He takes the engine apart, he just re-uses the gaskets! He saw on YouTube that it was OK!

I was wanting to learn how to do it with a flashlight through the sparkplug hole

jump in the ocean! It works for me! :detective:

Well darn it, I'm in arkansas, I don't think I can jump that far:drinkup:

More lift increases compression: Got it!!

Ya don't need to clearance the piston, that's the valves job to dent them in, everybody knows that

Why use gaskets when you have those big tubes of JB Weld just sitting there?

you gotta love threads like this one.

i blew a martini out my nose when i saw the post showing the
hole saw position of the "Pressure Letter Outer Hole".

LMAO!!!

Cut a extra set of ring grooves in the piston and ad a extra set of ring. 275!

I think he can use this method and just make his own rings. If you want more compression cuts go in. Less compression cuts go out. Kind of like "lefty loosen".. I would practice on keystock because its cheap.... https://youtu.be/g49H35ie2eQ

Hi, I would just like to say I have filed down my top two piston rings The second one not as much as the first for the engineering reasons you all should know by now.

Was the gap too tight?

I am just an amateur hack, not an engineer. Why not so much on the second ring?

did you file a flat spot on the sides of the rings to relieve the blow by pressure?

:grind:

 

[xBrent92]

IT WORKS GREAT!!!

I am too excited. This is the first set i've ever filed and engine has absolutely NO blowby(i think) and can even hear as if it has more of a "punch" during each combustion cycle. So cool.

Just barely not as much as the first .In hope to prevent excess gas if needed.
