Thats not good! I put a 1/8 by 1/4 hole through a piston and started to collapse the dome, and still showed 20 lbs compression :cry:

is which time?
Just kidding Mr Parent, SIR My Friend!
BUT remember this little story, a little long but worth the read:

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking her faithful aged dog named Camp, along for the company.

One day the dog starts chasing butterflies and before long, Camp discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old dog thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo now!" Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap, the old dog exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!", says the leopard, "That was close! That old dog nearly had me!"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old dog sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.

The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!"

Now, the old dog sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old dog says: "Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"

Moral of this story...
Don't mess with old farts...age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience!

PM me your phone numbers.

Hey Kevin - sorry to hear about the damage. You ought to get you one of those bore scopes like Monty has. I got one this winter and boy is that thing handy. You can fish it down the intake and see the valves, in the spark plug hole and get an idea of what the piston top looks like. Handy tool.
