i'f you've got kids, you likely have the stuff somewhere. Its made for hanging posters and crap. it doesnt get hard, i have some we've been using for probably 4 years, recently we've changed suppliers
We now stock the Elmers brand of "tac n stick" (also from the dollar store)
hahahaha. we've been using this stuff since the 80s
There are harder ones out there, this is soft enough to squish out of the way and doesnt retract. like i said, we mainly use it on the pistons for checking clearence to the valve.

roll it thru, it stays where it got squished to when you stick it to the piston and lube the head, measure how thick it is and go on with ur day

doood. first of all, ive never heard any cr500 head being .120. not sure whats going on. you dont need 2' of solder. just 2 small pieces just long enough to extend past the edge of the band. it would be one thing if you already had the tic n stick shit laying around BUT your driving all over town waisting time, the shit you need is already in your garage. and calipers are alot easier to work with....... btw
let me show you son . you made a 10min job into 1.5 days . all you need right here. it is what it is, no need to double check anything. roll piston down a britincali hair from the top, install putty, solder, playdoh, piece of fresh dog shit, or what ever your going to put in there, roll piston over and measure.......done.

Heres the lead thats been crushed it measured .139 on the micrometer
Heres the piston, it's in decent shape... I will be taking it off the rod tomorrow to inspect the under side and look closer for cracks. I want to hear opinions? Also I have access to a hot bath, would putting the piston in there help clean it up at all? or remove carbon from the top?
Heres the bore, its hard to tell from the pictures but the factory cross hatching is very visible and the finish is really smooth. I would like to hear opinions on this as well.
Finally the ports, they are very rough lots of lips and dips, I think theres room for lots of improvement here
