So today I'm going to be assembling materials to get a 4 thousandths central warpage out of the block deck and a few spots on a J.Y. manifold are 14 thousandths but it looks like old gasket material there.
I purchased-
3M's 77 adhesive
3M sandpaper (80-100-120 grit)
A straightedge
6 strong flat magnets, (to place in the cylinders)
Assorted vacuum caps, (to plug the passageways)
Wheel bearing grease, (for around the lip of the pistons)
One 1/2" thick steel slab a bit longer and wider than the block 12" by 28" for evenly distributed pressure and to help with sanding approx.-60lbs, (as flat as possible)
One 1/2" thick hardwood board of the same size
Some gorilla wood glue and a 2 ton car to sandwich them together under the sub-frame with a spare wheel
One 3' by 3' slab of machined granite 4" thick (or a thick laminated VERY flat surface)
I plan to first glue the sandpaper to the stone for planing the wood that I glued to the steel perfectly flat because after gluing it was not true.
Than glue sandpaper onto the planed wood surface to plane the block and more wood glued to the steel side to make handles.
Anyone ever try this or have any suggestions I would appreciate feedback.
