I have the dowels, spacers and anything else he needs. The head protrudes .030" down inside the head gasket. This would crash big time. I can send the 3mm and 5mm spacer with dowels tomorrow.

He has parts to sell, I have parts to ride. The difference is I ride and he does not. He makes money on you guys and I just try to help my brethren enjoy their toys. Making money does not mean anything to me!

I can attest to that last statement. I bought 4 items from him and it the bill came in $75 dollars short of what it should of been. Gotta love the brethren that can help like this.. Thanks for all the help you've given me and everyone else on this forum Tony.

so tony was so cool enough to help me out and send me a cylinder so i can get to riding while i wait on my esr cylinder from neil at cleigh racing. nice lookin cylinder i must say. check out the pic down below. does anybody know how to take these little inserts out. one side has them and the other doesnt. i dont want to damage them cause they are not mine.

Insert something round and solid like a bit or transfer punch that will fit snugly inside the dowel into the dowel. Grip the dowel with a good pair of pliers, rotate the dowel back and forth while pulling. The snug fitting rod on the inside of the dowel will keep it from collapsing and distorting. It usually takes me about 30 seconds to remove them without damaging them . Sometimes a little penetrating oil used on the dowel will also make it come out a little easier.

DO NOT USE HEAT. It will weaken the strength of the aluminum ears on the cylinders.

I'm sittin here looking at the difference in long rod verses short rod pistons. The pin height is 3/16 of and inch higher on the long rod piston. So this piston will drop the top by 3/16. Instead you may want to use the 3/16 spacer plate cause the piston is an 87-89 design. The 86 piston matches the FTZ cylinder better on the intake side. I will send spacers and this piston. Just set what you don't use aside and I will get them from you later.

There is another .020" gasket between the 3mm and 5mm spacer I am sending. The dowels are inside the piston box. You won't get it till Tuesday

Once you get the deck height set you run the piston down to BDC and see if the top of the piston is at the bottom of the ports.

In regards to the dowl removal. I sprayed some penetrating oil in there and lightly tapped them down and out with a deepwell socket. I dont remember the size but it worked sweet.
