Title: Locating dowels position between head / block
Post by: alim_h on August 10, 2012, 10:43:45 PM

Does anyone know EXACTLY which holes the locating dowels sit on the block, between the block and the head? If anyone has a diagram or a photograph, that's would be superb.

From realoem.com it looks there should be 2 dowels.
