Oh and color, and here's a real challenge for you....urban camo the tank and barrel with [white, gray, black] and small brown highlights around the black....solid light gray for tee and endcap.

...Sort of an Arctic camo look. Would really stand out on that big gun.

i think black and blue flames wont be bad, you guys think thats cool?

The blue might not be too visible in the black if it is a dark shade so you would need to use light blue for it to more visable.

yeah, that sounds awesome

or even a NEON blue if they make it....

Ok i can see that but how about my support for my sealing face?

A huge metal washer...

...if you can find one

if you have access to a lathe and some 1/8" steel, you could just make your own...

Thats what i did with my 2in piston
I was too lazy to go to the hardware store so I took so sheet metal and attaked it with a dremel.
Turned out pretty well

Well jrrdw said for me to use a 3 inch one, which would go infront of the sealing face so the sealing face would get pushed through the porting.

But i dont know if that would work because my configuration is not exactly centered so then it may possibly not even seal.

I could, and might, use a 4" washer from mcmaster carr but i dont want it to interfere with the sides of the piston, so would i just go with a 3.75 inch washer?
