  • Piston to Valve Clearance Check... Having fun with this Performance 454 BBC engine build...
    This is something I did earlier in the engine build, but didn't film it. This is a process that needs to be done before the engine is balanced. We've had a couple questions, so let's go back to review the steps that I go thru to check the piston to valve clearance. Hope it's informative....

    Your videos are great 👍 I'm getting ready to assemble a 496 BBC and I love how you take your time to explain things and show little tricks I'm trying to learn as much as I can thank you.

    When I did my 406 I got a hair over .080 on the intake. The exhaust had a ton of room. That's not a whole lot of room but it's never had any issues.

    What was your Quench also retainer to valve Guide clearance great video Thanks

    • @Myersmetalworks
      @Myersmetalworks  2 года назад

      Thanks for the nice comment... Head gasket thickness + .005 would be Quench... Retainer to valve guide clearance was very good on the heads... Don't recall the number...

    If by chance you did have a clearance issue, would you have to return those pistons? I am in the stage right now where I need to choose pistons and want a healthy amount of compression.

    • @Myersmetalworks
      @Myersmetalworks  Год назад +3

      Hi Designs in orbit.... If I did not have enough space we would have the valve reliefs on the pistons fly cut for more space....

  • @oldsmanmike2803
    @oldsmanmike2803 3 года назад +1

    I was looking at the pistons and see a number laser etched into the top, 8395L. Do you recall how many cc the piston dome is? Maybe its about 26 CC? I have some old TRW forged pistons and I want to make sure the dome they have is smaller than yours. If or when I change my cam this will give me an idea about the clearance I should expect to see. Thanks

      It think it was around .625 on the intake and .650 exhaust...

    What size chamber on your heads. You've got plenty of room, maybe take a little off

    • @Myersmetalworks
      @Myersmetalworks  Месяц назад

      Hi Terry.... Chamber are 112cc and compression is 10.15 to 1. Going to drive it on the street and want to keep it pump gas friendly...

      @@Myersmetalworks very nice. I just got to the party late. 454, overbore.? Looks like a fairly nice dome. Also you said solid roller, nice choice. I'm gonna go back and check the previous videos. Should be a real nice piece for the street. From off the grid in Az.

    What was total lift of the cam. Seems like alot of room for a solid roller (most starting close to .700 lift)

      Hi Enhanced... It's around .650 lift with a 1.7 rocker

    I have a Honda k20 engine. I have 1mm oversized dished valves on the intake and I have stock size flat faced valves on exhaust side. Is this a good set up?

    • @Myersmetalworks
      @Myersmetalworks  2 года назад

      Sorry I have never worked on a K20 Honda engine... Look up (PFI speed) on youtube... They maybe could help on your set up.... Thanks...

    What happens if it’s too close? Just get a shorter pushrod?

    • @Myersmetalworks
      @Myersmetalworks  3 года назад

      There are several things you could do... But I think I would have deeper valve reliefs machined into the pistons
      before I had the engine balanced...
