Polished combustion chambers?
Is there anything to be gained by polishing the combustion chambers on Offy heads?

Yeah, the exhaust from your tailpipe will come out real shiny.

Re: Polished combustion chambers?
If anything I believe the cast chamber would aid in mixing the charge - so no - polishing the internal head would in my opinion not be advantages - porting and polishing the block ports is another story as it aids in flow IMHO.

And smo-o-o-o-o-oth, too! (Sorry, just couldn't resist)
Seriously, I doubt that there are any advantages to polishing the combustion chambers as long as there are no major irregularities that could get hot, glow and cause pre-ignition. I believe that's very unlikely. FWIW |

Re: Polished combustion chambers?
Okay guys, I get it! Looks like it's gonna be a long winter, was looking for some busy work. Maybe I'm spending too much time in the garage.
