Who's Flycut Pistons? The setup i am possibly looking at will require flycutting the pistons. I am going to be doing the install, and was wondering who has flycut their pistons and what all is involved in the process and how hard it actually is. Also does anyone know where you can get the Isky tool to do the job with the motor in the car? Thanks

It's fairly easy to do in the car.
You need to dissasemble one of your heads.
install cutting tool
bolt head on car with old gasket and 2 bolts.
run piston up till it hit's the cutter
Then turn cutter(pack cutter with greese to hold fillings)
there is and adjustable stop on the cutter tool you need to set.
Cut a little and pull head and check.
The first 2 take some time to get the feel on the cutting depth,but after that it's easy..I cut the intakes in about 1.5 hours..
Also make sure you buy a big enough cutter.My valves were 2.02 so we got a 2.06 cutter.
