Larry: I was replying to Dan H's post re: magnetometers as alternate, and should have made that clear. The comment "(dry)" was with respect to the "whiskey" qualifier in the subject line, and "wet" referred to the dampening agent used in the typical "whiskey" compass. What I said was what I

My understanding is that the intent of a (wet) compass requirement is as a last resort/emergency/always available navigation tool - with the fluid serving as a dampening influence compared to a dry compass with no dampening. In order for any other type to qualify, there must be no external

Even if that head machining left little or no material between it and the pushrod location, doesn't the cylinder seal against the head, thus making that possible or real gap in the head material immaterial to the leakage problem? Looking at the picture of the head again, there is discoloration
