Soren, the short answer is no, there is no more material than stock.

The new cylinder block has an upper surface (top deck) thickness of 3/8 (.375) inch which is identical to an original cylinder block.

Port wall thickness below the top deck is a little thicker than stock at 3/16 (.1875) inch.

Although the intake valve size is stock, the intake ports are larger and more streamlined than stock.

I see that you are from Sweden. We have enough orders to send a container directly to our agent in Holland which will result in not having to pay US Customs.

Please contact me by PM or [email protected] for the agent's contact information.
