rio1 you have to use tool wrap which is .002 thick stainless steel you can get it in a roll or in a bag you place your parts inside the bag ,wrap the parts in paper place inside the stainless steel bag seal it up then place inside the furnace .

Something I always did when heat treating rings is to wrap them in tool wrap and paper inside the wrap the paper burns out the oxygen rings come out real clean .

The first thing you need to do is use a fire Tap . Randy

That is why there is a fixture in the plans to put the holes in after the head is screwed to the cylinder or the threads would have to be clocked or timed with the holes. Randy

What kind of bluing did you use ?

Thats the way I would have done it. Randy
