Default Re: Cylinder head machining advice.

safest way is check without head gasket and use the foil balls, if you have clearance then you can rest assured with head gasket you are good to go. As told to me by an old flathead racer. I am running a Super Winfield with no fly cut, and this proved to be a safe method with a Best 509 gasket. Got lucky on my .60 over motor.. had less than stock piston pop up.
