Are you checking the correct piston ?? right front looking at the front.
Also keep in mind that both valves close on the compression stroke well before TDC so you'd have a tough time holding all that compression with your thumb right to TDC !!
I bought the Eastwood set a number of years ago. Its served my purposes. But it all boils down to how much sheet metal work you plan to do, that will ultimately determine what you need. One thing I did buy that doesn't get much use but has been well worth the investment is a pair of shrink...
After all was said and doneI thought that a) the quarter should be tacked at the drip rail THEN b) it should be pushed UP from the bottom to increase the curvature at the extension. This may have required some slits behind the extension or some shrinking of those lips.
Do those quarters also...
Yup! Great fit, huh! It took a combination of grinding off some of the extensions as well as bondo on the quarters to get a satisfactory fit on mine. Still not great. A good metal guy would probably do some slicing and patching.
