Question1
|
Are we talking stock gasket? Drop on fire rings?
What class are you running? Rpms? Timing? Type of injection pump, amount of fuel, injectors, turbo, ect... Some of this info would be helpful to get a better picture of what's going on. If you don't have your sleeves cut for regular fire rings it's something you should probably look into. |

Did you cut the outside edge of sleeve down for the fire ring thickness so you get proper crush on the fire rings |

Yes we did cut outer edge and they are 105 then they crush to about 88 does that sound correct? Thank you |

Thats more crush then we run im thinking your not getting tight enough to your gasket.
Also hyper and GMS use different thickness in there gaskets. |
