think of it this way. make a stencil of the deck, trace it onto a piece of 1" aluminum, and weld that ****** on there.

IMHO 1" was way too much. you would have gotten the job done at 1/2" and saved yourself some R/S ratio. GL with the thing man.

 

OMG is all i can say. Dude that thing is going to be ruthless. I think i am safe to assume that this is not going to be a daily driver. Good luck with the project!

 

I'm just thinking of the inside of the cylinder. There must be a groove there, right? I can't see that being good with a piston sliding up and down at 8000rpm. I suppose they might have some special thing they do to make it flawlessly smooth? Even then, I'm sure that would be a super weak spot in the cylinder wall with all kidns of hot spots.
