10 mil 535 cheetah build

Recommended Posts

Sup fellas, I'm going to be setting up a 10 mil 535 cheetah drag/dune ported by WK racing. I was wondering what base gasket I shud run? Setup will be running on pump gas/race fuel. Also is 100 octane considered race gas or pump gas? I'm just waiting to order the gaskets and clutch components(lockup,cover,clutch,basket). Is there anything else that I shud do or have done prior to assembly? Please, all help is welcome and appreciated.

First off one the 535 get the domes recut, call Tim Bond at Titan Racing.The only domes u can run pump gas in the cheetah is 27cc. and the base gasket all depends on the squish. Trust me about the domes, I have a 535 was built by one of the best builder's. Doug at Dm racing. With the 535 u need a good builder to build or help u build that motor.

Yea Im def gettin custom cut domes for it from Tim. I was thinking bout call cam at redline and having him assemble the motor or help me out with the setup. What squish wud u reccomended or wud that depend on the cylinder setup?? As I know everyone is different. I'm just trying to do it right the 1st time so that way I won't have to do it again.

There has been some really fast 535's out of White Knuckle! Really, try to run the smallest base gasket you can in my opinion to keep things as low as possible for torque's sake. Then port and set up the domes around it. When you call white knuckle you need to have all these questions answered about the problems with the cheetahs. If they give you even the slightest hint of BS move on before it is to late. But to be honest I think they will be able to address any issues common with the cheetahs as they have done it before. The assembly is not hard it is all the blue printing and set up that takes the good builders. So if you have been comfortable in the past with rebuilding a banshee and had success to ahead and do it. If not and you are a little daunted, pay whoever ports it to assemble it.

Yea the porting looks good on my cylinders, so maybe I shud run 0.20 or 0.30 base gasket? I'm goin to call WK on Monday and see what they suggest and reccomend. I have assembled motors b4 and been successful so i don't see why this wud be different, I just need the builders specs b4 I begin. I'm not sure if the domes are custom cut that I have, but they are 22cc so it probably ran on race fuel b4 I got it. :confused: Still will get custom ones from Tim at Titan to be sure. Also what length swinger wud be good for this setup? I was thinking +8 roundhouse. I will be running in the sand/dirt.

Go with your gut and call Cam :clap: .......you'll save yourself a ton of trouble and money. These motors need to be right....or they end up costing you a ton.

ok i spoke to white knuckle today and got sum info. said to run a 0.30 base gasket and squish shud b between 0.40-0.50 thousandths. also said block off plates wud prob run better than the p.v but ev setup is different. im going to order a few base gaskets tomorrow and get this thing ready for topend to be put on. as far as checking squish how wud i go about doing that once the time comes?? i kinda got the idea but just want to be sure.
