I've got some real clearance issues between the one of the pipes and the bottom of one of the cylinders and a second gasket would be the perfect spacer. o I've got baffles wrapped around the bottoms of all cylinders (to keep the cooling air in the fins longer), but I've found no guidance on how much of the cylinder bottom should be exposed for the air to exhaust from. Any good rules of thumb? o And out of curiosity, how many of you have primers installed on normally carbureted engines? And if so, how many cylinders? Thanks, as always, for any help.
