Well hot digitty!
I kept a couple of the liners when I had my inframe done, I'm gonna mount up a liner next time I'm at the house and see how they cut. That doesn't look any harder at all to do than what I was doing.
I'll have to dig into the Way Back Time Machine for some pics of when I was doing it.
And don't get me wrong, we had no head gasket problems at 2X:1, but I blew the heads off of it several times. The head bolts couldn't handle the stress, lifted both heads on the first pass. When I cut back to 18:1 I found I could reuse head bolts twice and toss them, they failed 50% after three times so once was safe, twice was only if we didn't have enough spares.
Never tried treating head bolts, now your making me wonder if it would have held with big compression and cryo'd bolts. I went from 3/8 to 7/16 bolts, but there wasn't enough room to go bigger.
