What is the recommended head clearance for running your BRB set.....after taking the engine aparts.....found 4 copper shims !!!!! Far too many in my opinion, two 0.2mm and 2 0.1mm !!!!
Got a funny feeling that the nova rossi piston not gonna last long !!!!!
Have you sorted out your paypal account yet as i want to order asap ? Gonna needs 2 set of 2.1cc BRB and 1 set of 3.5cc BRB...and do you do the piston and con rod alone coz i gonna need a couple of them as well !!!
Thanks

Hey Phillip.
Yes 0.6 mm head shimming is way to much, we are ususaly running 0.4 mm in hot days and 0.3 cold days.
I am not sure if Novarossi piston will work at all, it has different expention rate properties and it containing a lot of less Si, so it will not last as long as original.
I reserved that sets for you already, but paypal still hanging. I hope will fix it within a couple of days.
