Does anyone know, should the piston come to the very top of the cylinder wall when on TDC? My cylinders to not come all the way to the top,probally stop about a 1/4 of an inch from the top. My compression is low and I am trying to sort out any problems.
Little piston help here, please help, getting desperate now

that is deffenantly not right, the pistons should come all the way to the top. sounds like someone put the wrong cylinder on that thing, or the wrong rods. if its a 750 that could easily be done because there is alot of stuff that will interchange between them.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Check my thinking, but weren't the 89 cylinders the short stroke, and the 86 bottom ends would have the long rods..so your piston should come out too far...right???
But hey, which ever way, best of luck..now you have a new project..cool!!

He must have made the spacer too thick..
