    Crosshatch? Never heard of it. This is 100% the reason you don't use ether. 20181122_173715.jpg

    Be sure to check your timing. If someone advanced it to far it will crack the tops as well.

    I honestly thought this engine was converted to direct injection. Nope. Its still a prechamber engine.

    I don't blame you a bit. Everytime I build a pump, timing advance or an engine we start it bone stock. I fortunate and have a CAT timing meter so they all get set where I want them once warmed up. That A oughta be 24 degrees advanced when pin timed. Not telling you your business but that's plenty in my opinion.
