    Oil pressure relief mods and measurements ('67)

    Been over a year, and I forgot…
    Had oil pressure relief mods done to case, have parts, not sure what spring goes where, etc. Also,
    Trying to ensure that old pistons are out, and have measured depth to the "step". Can anyone verify these measurements? Appreciate it.

    The way I've always used to remove a stuck piston is to insert a taper tap that will start to screw into the piston, when the threads grab enough twist and pull out.

    Ed, makes sense.

    For now, I'm just trying to verify that I don't have one left down in the bore. I can only find one of my old pistons…...

    stick a magnet down the hole if it sticks, there is a piston in the bore.
