    Sounds like a question for Dynoroom. If he doesn't sign in you could PM him. My guess is that it depends on the angle but I'm guessing.

        Have him go to <inliners.com> (I think I have the address right). Someone there will have already screwed up a couple of heads to find out the best way. There isn't much these guys haven't done with an inline.

        A flat mill seems to work best on a Chevy like mine but I have no clue on a Ford.

          To me what you are looking at is a sucker's game. Big angle milling, like to the limits as you are discussing, I think is only reasonable in a class where you are working around rules limitations. It really throws everything off and costs too much in time. Why is he even considering it? I would recommend pistons or flat milling every time, unless circumstances make angle milling the only choice.

            It's really no different than trying to glue them back on after she has her way.
