Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects

Stinting reinforces the deck surface of the head in spots where head gaskets tend to fail. It is done by milling holes in the deck surface at the weak points around the deck. Then pressing in solid aluminum rod in the holes, the rod is tig welded into the head. There are two locations per cylinder. It was MAP's recommendation, as they had successful experience with it.
