    Re: Making hour glass shaped reeds to Hi Pe ... (JaySmithRacing)

    That look really nice. Would there be any advantage to beveling the inside of the cage? Would this increase high rpm flow?


    Another thought. i haven't installed the heads you sent yet. To much wind and rain. Any benefit to chasing the treads in the block before I install the heads.. Or would this create a problem? Never worked on an AL block.

    Have you got a cost work up yet to open the cages ?

    Thanks

    The Hour glass shaped 5 petal are $120 total and that includes lapping and bead blasting the inside of the cage...

    For 14 petal cages $160.00 + freight..
