aerox reedblock

check this out..

wot are these allen keys for...
can i just get a normal 3mm allen key and drill a hole in the center of them..
coz im getin a polini reedblock and carbon reeds and a boost bottle for show..

UPDATE: DONE!!!

 

im sure drilling an allen key could work i had the same problem tryin to get mine off, realised they had the little nipples inside lol

 

go to your local hardware shop, buy a security screwdriver set, comes with all them weird screw driver heads. got mine for a tenner

 

If your on the cheap, get a punch and hammer, just knock the middle out
molegrips are also you friend..

 

o yeh, gud idea ill try that... :w00t:

 

Anti-tamper/anti-muppet/anti-monkey/anti-fuj-yammy bolts imp:

Centre punch, drill, remove, replace with new stainless allen bolt

 

o tah.. tweak.. :w00t: ive dun em now anyway, got rid of the center bit and extracted with a 4mm allen key.

just need ma new reedblock set now.. :nerd:

 

when i got mine out i just used a hammer and a chisel, tapped it round so it was loose and undid it with me fingers

 

mine are all rusted up tho. i undid 1. then i put sum wd40 on the other coz it was siezed on. gona giv it ago agen 2moz and if i round the face of the allen nut slightly im gonna be stuck.. and wont have no polini reeds..

 

SUMMARY!!!


all is well. got the old allen key bolt out in a jiffy this morn.. fiited the new polini reedblock and bolted the intake mainfold back on with sum new 8mm bolts, stainless of course. fitted ma boost bottle aswell..


im runnin sum siiik BOOST!! LOL.. not!

the carbon reeds made difference in the acceleration defanetely and its made it sound differently aswell. it makes more of a tinny noise when the engine is slowing down from higher revs...and it sounds like it has the tone of a mx bike a tiny bit.. duno y tho..

do you reckon tht this crank can take a 70 kit, malossi sport kit. i thought that it was gonna be in well worse condition to be honest becoz its dun 11k. but i was surprised at the condition of it.. what do you men reckon????

11k crank..


11k pison..


in the bottom pic, if u look closely theres scratch marks on the actual piston itself.. but the cranks absoloutly mint.. i think the owner before frainey was a complete wanker 2 b honest, he must of ran it on shitty garden lawnmower oil.. arc:

 

piston has been run hard from cold, you can't tell from looking at a crank, the feel of it is the key to knowing if it's up to the job or not. i suspect not.

 

i wanted a polini cast or a malossi cast. just a cheap kit for about 90-100 quid.

what makes an ali kit more powerful over a cast, i dont want one though im just interested to now bout different piston materials.

can you get scooter pistons with a silicone content, i heard that it was meant to be the best material for a piston..

thanks all..

 

An alloy kit dissipates heat better than an iron kit...

so alloy is the norm on kits higher than sports spec...

its the porting that makes the power rather than the material the barrell is made from

 

if u have liquid cooling the ali kit becomes uneeded.. doesn't it???

im gona try portin ma 70 iron kit.. is stuntbase a good site to use for port maps???

thanks all....
i believe in preperation as a very important step when trying something new to me out..

 

an ali kit with l/c wiil just run a lot cooler wont it... cooler engine means an engine capable of more power and will run alot efficiently.. im stupid, just wasnt thinking. .

im not completely enigine dumb. ive worked with 4T air cooled pit bike enigines and learned alot from them..
:rofl:

2T enigines are a whole different principle... but just as complex..

has anyone got ani pics of a ported l/c barrel?? id just lyk sum to get a better idea of porting.. thanks

 

yep. i'll do that. give me a better idea..

thanks for all of the replies people..

nice 1 minor,,
