Domed pistons and WW okrasa heads?

[Frederik]

Bought a new KS piston and cylinder kit for 36hp. I think the pistons in the kit are 40hp and the cylinders 36hp. Pistons have a small dome. Has anyone tried this with a ww kit/ heads? Any clearens problemet? Would it be doomed to fail with ratio rockers,1.25 1.4 speedwell or other?

Go for it,They are a great setup. I run 1500 type 3 domed on my Bville engine with ww heads .060 deck, 1.25 ratio rocker and a porsche grind cam.The 77 dome top rev like a hot dam

piston are european mid 70/80 from 40 hp engine with about 1mm machined for clearance.

i would check for piston to cylinder clearance. 36hp is tighter and 40hp is looser.

I have used these p?cyl here they came off of Mexican factory industrial engines.If your worried about it silly putty the heads and check clearance
