Today I learned something that i have wondered about since I was a child.
"She's ported and relieved and she stroked and bored"
Ok, cool.... But what the fack is "relieved" never knew, got older, eventually just called bullshit on the term and moved on..
Today I'm watching a vid with a dude getting an old flat head running. He flips the head over, points at two small channels grooved in between the valve and piston sides of the head and said "oh, look, it's relieved. They used to do this on hot rods and some trucks" he slaps the head on, starts bolting it down and my mind blows wide open.
"She's just a Little Deuce Coupe with a flathead Mill"
It all makes sense now!!!
Merry. Christmas. Andy.
"And if you dont know, now you know" umm. "people" let's go with people. (See if anyone can place that one)
And he was correct, he's got a little duce coupe, and I didn't know what he's got...
Merry Christmas Guys and Gals and anyone else!
