Nice, I love it when the parts are all clean!!! lol
So an interesting tid-bit, the combustion chamber (open) on my W2 head is missing that spark plug 'pad' as I call it, the flat casting spot by the plug as it protrudes into the chamber.
All the factory heads I have seen have it. I always thought it was meant to allow the flame to start up and then propagate evenly around. I am curious though if there is any sort of 'physics of flame' travel reason to the shape?
This is what my chamber looks like (see attached image).
