I agree with the idea of eliminating the head gasket, i think the crosley engine did that but not sure, Head Gaskets can be a big trouble spot on any engine, there were some ford and chevy engines the 383 and 430 as well as the 409 chevy that had no combustion chamber in the head but in the angle cut of the block with a flat head surface, not sure how they worked out gasket wise, lately my interest has been in how much better fuel injection is than carbs , since I have two holleys on the boat, a pain to be sure, I remember wondering how a injected 5.0 Mustang could run faster than my 300 lb lighter 66 GT with the same engine but with injection, a lot more torque and free flowing intake , I guess the wave of the future is direct injection with variable cams and no throttle plate, big differences it seems, on the 2 stroke oil front , the truck ran smooth as a kitten today , so I'm hooked on it for now.
