Cylinder Head Honing Gasket
|
Distortion related to clamping force on the gasket can be mapped by making a gasket from a special load-sensitive film. The color trace can show the deck torque loading of the actual cylinder head, providing a guide that can insure that the torque plate is indeed accurately replicating the head's loading. When the torque plate loading is a poor match for the actual cylinder head loading, the bores can be significantly distorted when the actual cylinder head is installed. View Related Article
