hi mark
i dont understand how a fuel can make a crank rods pistons etc stronger ,if a 800 hp engine brakes on pump fuel why is it stronger on methonal ,not being funny i just dont understand ,on the block geoff has done, he says he has done it like bdt ie fire rings and o rings round the rest ,would a recess in the head and a copper ring and the the liner protruding so it bites in the copper ring then o ring the rest so studs are just pulling down on a smaller area than trying to clamp the full surface of the head block the pressure on the rings will be a lot higher for the same torque then if on the full surface of the deck
