This post is almost 2 years old. How the he!! did it get dug up?
But i'm game, a quick motor history for fun:
-99mm 13.5-1 kamakazi none of these lasted but it was fun for it's short life.
-97mm 14-1 kamakazi my fave but this is the one, I completely blew apart last year.
-then came the falicon 98mm x 70.4 this is what I ran up into the winter but I got this one hot or something didn't blow it really but never cured the head gasket problem. Think I warped it? Also tried a few thing to mess with the compression. It's been down since x-mas or nov when I went to school. According to G it wasn't to learn how to fix motor's. :slap:
So now the motor that I am putting together, well not me but a friend and motorcycle mech. It was hard to get him to do it I think he's a yamaha guy hates honda, but I think he's excited about this build. It still a stroker, 70.4mm with a 101mm bore n-motion slug. It's a nice piston except for being a wiseco, so it's a spray and pray for the wrist pin. 13.5 stroker comp. The crank is off getting rebuilt and balanced for the piston. The bottom end is getting re-bearinged everyone. He was worried about the forks and dogs knowing my shifting/driving methods. The gears are good so just new forks since were going this far.
Your cylinder head, again thanks. Everyone who has seen it had nothing but praise for your work. :drink: hrc cam the old one, thanks G. Never tried this cam yet so it's about time. I have a carb at Dasa getting bored I think Dan is going to 44mm, also trying one of his pipes. Still running the rekluse clutch with a hinson just doubled the amount of tungston bearings, and my first new clutch for this motor. I think that's it.
One more thing John, my mech was talking about blending the intake port to match the new carb. I told him I was a bit leary about this not wanting anyone else to mess with your work. Your thought's on this, is there even a need to touch it?
