few questions, with pics
ok got a few questions for you guys
first off, here is a pic of one on my new housings, its oil injector nipple is bent, is it changeable with one from another housing?
2nd, is the face of this iron ok, or does the face need to be shiner, or smoother? cause all of my replacement irons have this duller surface than my others ones
3rd, how does this streetport look, can i go further, or is it fine for a street car?
thanks
Dennis

Yup those can be removed by unscrewing them. I removed mine but had a hell of a time finding a good socket to get them off with. Im sure theres some kind of SST or similiar to get them off. I ended up using the right size socket and was able to get them off with no damage.

need better pictures of the last 2. Are you doing any wear measurements? and what template are you using. Aslong as you keep in the lines of your template, its safe to say you are safe.

i can do the measurements, and i am not using a template, im just making them in a bad set of irons i have, them im gonna mirror them in my good irons, since most people say that most templates you buy are very mild anyway

Then how do you figure you are keeping within the correct areas and not slipping into the oil control ring area?
