Does anyone know the specifications of the recessed groove around the pistons
in the later 1296 or 1500 block? I want to convert an early 1296 block to use
the recessed head gasket for the later blocks. Thanks Dale Oesterle.

for motorcycles was to drill the guide with a slightly larger drill
until it was flush with the head, then heat the head to about 300
degrees in an oven and drift out the guides with a stepped drift. Of
course these are small heads and they are aluminum.
