I was talking with some of my buddies that go on trips with me and the term "flycutting" kept coming up while talking about H/C jobs. I don't want to sound like an idiot, but what does this term mean? Thank you!:cheers:

Flycutting, in relation to head and cam setups, is when you have to cut the valve reliefs in the pistons deeper to accomodate high lift camshafts. Several manufacturers offer a special tool to allow you to do this with the engine in the car, but it is a very major job.

Hope this helps,
