Hey Cutter Rob, What would you say is the right position of the grove , Would you aim for the center of the of the firing ring in the head gasket ? Or more inwards to the center of the cylinder, What im askin is what the diameter of the grove would be ? And what protrution on a 0.10 over HG
On the 6.7 cummins where do you want the oring to land on the headgasket, I was going to try a felpro permatorque mls gasket with the orings in the block
@ CUTTERUP ROB What insert is that youre using. I tried grinding a threading insert for my boring head and I came out with horrible pattern / groove when I machined my head. I cant even get the wire to stay in place. So now I need to step it up to the next size wire in hopes of saving my 24v 5.9 head. I was going to try a grooving bar next in my boring head with copper wire. These heads arent cheap.
@@CUTTERUPROB Funny that's what I bought today for my boring head an internal grooving bar . Thanks for the reply. Your video helped me understand a few things I didnt know.
@ CUTTERUP ROB sorry to bother you again, Is that a grizzly G3102 knee mill ? It looks just like my knee mill . Did you CNC it or did you buy it with a motorized DRO ? Nice shop you have.
Thanks for making this video. Obviously a very-well trimmed mill is necessary for this process! I’m now confident I can do this in my shop. Thanks again.
@@CUTTERUPROB yes I have a mill. I’m needing to do an O ring .035 width and don’t know where I should even start when buying a boring bar or carbide inserts to get that measurements and can’t seem to find one like yours.
OLÁ. Deu para notar que o cabeçote esta mal posicionado e ou a regulagem de 90º está incorreta e ou a máquina está vencida. A forma de conferir a planicidade da largura apenas "copia" o erro praticado indicando nada. Na medição longitudinal, se a mesa da máquina estiver correta poderás constatar o erro cometido ao medir a largura. Com uma perfeita e simples "Régua de Precisão" sabendo usa-la corretamente constatarás o erro praticado. ABRAÇOS... Roberto Udo Krapf
Very nice! Enjoyed seeing how this is done relative to both the machining and installation. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!

I like them in the middle of the fire ring

I use a internal groove cutter .039 square cut most of the time

@@markrich3271 its a challenger mill came with the DRO. no cnc stuff on it, but a guy can dream about cnc stuff lol

How do you remove o-rings that have miles on them, seems harder than it should be?? Help
I cut them out most times. But you can spot weld to the wire and pull them if you good with a tig
Are these rings leaking where both ends come together? That was always a question for me...
I have never seen one leak that I have done
On that 6.7 head, what are those counter bores reliefs between the exhaust valves? For more flow?
it a emissions thing 13 + engine have them
Where are you pulling your dimensions from?
the Head gasket that’s being used
What gasket would you use on a 6.7 o-ring
Stock style
Nice video! I’m trying to do this and would greatly appreciate if you could help me find all the tools and inserts you used. Thanks
Do you have a mill ?
@@CUTTERUPROB yes I have a mill. I’m needing to do an O ring .035 width and don’t know where I should even start when buying a boring bar or carbide inserts to get that measurements and can’t seem to find one like yours.
send me a message on IG and i will give you some part numbers
@@CUTTERUPROB hey what’s your ig my machinist has a mill but I’d like to find him the right tooling to be able to do this process on my head .
How much does .015 off a 12v head raise compression?
Basically nothing. I sure it does a small amount. But nothing to worry about
How much much hp can o rings handle
Depends on what engine your working with
Where are you located?
Calgary Alberta Canada
Nice video 👍
Thanks 👍

I cant wait to have a mill so I can machine my heads and blocks like this. I use the isky tool for doing the blocks.
ya the mill is great machine
What wire did you use and where do I get it I’m having a machine shop cut grooves in my head for the o ring or should they know what wire to use?
I use .041 wire most of the time.
i have been looking but i cant find anyone with in 1000 miles of me to do this
