piston notching flycutting tool Hey guys, I think i may want to flycut my pistons. I have a junk head that I can hack apart. Im thinking about buying two $10 BBC valves and grinding notches around them to make a makeshift isky type tool. Ill probably grind a hex into the valvestem tip so I can stick a socket on it. Ill probably cut up the head so there's only one cylinder and 4 bolt holes on it, and ill have to reem out the valveguides to fit the 3/8 stem. Anybody see any problem doing it like this?
Ive got to do 2 or 3 cars, but not at the same time, so i cant rent. And my budget does not allow to buy the isky tool.
