hi people been deciding on crank for piaggio 2t lump and really my question can onley be answered from experiance have heard alot of 55mil cranks dont let the engine rev hard enough was wondering what people with them think

cheers steve

 

cheers that makes sense as i dont want to port the lump yet will prob go for 52 malossi or bgm

much appreciated steve

 

sorrey another question im not a 2stroke geious what is the squish and how is it mesured at a guess id say the space beetween piston and head at tdc using a dial gauge but i might be wrong

cheers steve

 

what do i do with the solder sorrey

 

arhhhhh clever and simple cool on the other hand how much is mild porting onley on the cylinder anyone know


cheers steve
thanks for help minor confusions dude much appreciated

 

by correction what do you mean exactley i was also gonna use a billet head of somesort but not sure on which one thats why i was asking about squish and cureiosity.

cheers steve

 

yeam am guessing anything over the standard 52 will.

 

i think i understand u now minor

example [bare in mind this is an example im sure youll get it ]

you have a 1.3 ford cvh engine and bolt o a bottem end from a 2.0 mondeo not much point with this head as your not using the full potential of it [you may or may not get this this is the sort of tuning im used to 4cyl 4ts


cheers for all yous help and info will get in contact when i wanna have my engine matched etc

thankyou steve

p.s [ the 1.3 cvh head is compatable to that of the old durated 2.0 and many other bottom ends as ford are lazy bastards and used that engine in like everything ]

 

p.s the word durated in my last post should say duratec

 

pretty much, the valves and ports in the 4t head wouldn't cope, just like the ports in the 2t cylinder wouldnt be up to it, although the position of the ports is the crucial factor on a 2t whearas on a 4t its more down to the size

 

yeah but the position when increasing the stroke on a 2t is fixed by the packer plate i guess where as in a 4t its simple on top or no where lol

steve

 

yeah, unless you get the die grinder out.

 

and im confused again lol
