Title: Re: Engine coatings Post by: Milwaukee Midget on March 26, 2018, 10:43:19 AM I really like the port split aspect of the intake - should minimize cylinder robbing, provided you're still getting enough overall flow - although 48 CI shouldn't require much.
What CR are you at with this piston/head combination? Title: Re: Engine coatings Post by: kiwi belly tank on March 26, 2018, 02:51:58 PM Does it still run the 2 bearing crank?

Title: Re: Engine coatings Post by: Milwaukee Midget on March 27, 2018, 12:15:50 AM Well, I can't speak to the coating method - I sent my pistons out for a service to do it, and I hope what you've got works - but a 48" Austin 4 popper with a pair of HS 2s is right in my wheelhouse.
How are you gearing it, and what are you using for a transmission? Will you be able to make Speedweek with it this year? Good luck on this build! :cheers: |
