IMO solder should never be used on wiring exposed to extreme vibration like on an ATV. The soldering creates cold joints at each end which makes the wire brittle. Here are some examples from an engine harness i built for a Mazda, same premise i used above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 It depends who’s using the equipment like anything. I’m an electrician by trade . I also wire drag cars for a few local shops. I’ve never had a failure. I try n use weather pac connectors as much as possible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vrx46 Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 Hell yeah! I like how meticulous you are with building the whole setup.. gettin in spec with motor, doing frame mods.. purple banshees are bad to the bone! Some of the most custom out here!

I try to use Deutsch where possible but tooling up for them is expensive!! 20 hours ago, vrx46 said: Hell yeah!

I like doing things the right way, sometimes costs a little more and takes longer but always worth it in the long run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Snap on raped me for the tooling but I also bought a backprobe testing kit at the same so I don’t remember which one was more. I love me some tools tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dano3 Posted September 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 Got this thing wrapped up and rode it last week. It was a bit rich on the pilot and main but it has been raining every weekend since i fired it up so have not really had a chance to fully dial it in. After waiting on the crankshaft for about another month, the one i received still had runout on the flywheel side web in almost the same manner. I did not get a chance to check total runout myself but was assured it was below spec so i slapped it in due to time constraints. Still not happy about that whole ordeal and definitely will not be giving them my business in the future. With a .031” base i was at .045” squish at the outside edge and at .050” on the inside edge on both cylinders, measured twice in each hole with the same exact results. And of course, 6psi for 10+ minutes! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayesully810 Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) looks good man edit: dont people use different thickness base gaskets to adjust squish too? say if you had a .020 gasket and wanted to increase your squish a bit and change to a .030, does that affect port timings at all? or at what point would it affect port timings if any, im sure sleeper or someone will chime in Edited September 22, 2018 by Ayesully810 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano3 Posted September 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 Getting these pipes on with new O rings was a pain in the fucking assIm trying out this vibrant hose wrap that is rated for 500* radiant. Same stuff i am using on my turbo drain hose that runs close to my manifold. And a pic of RU-1090s and shearers for someones future referencePicked up a set of padla brats for the BHQ ride. I went with the play cut in hopes they will be a little more durable. These things are reallyLight on DWT A5s compared to sandstars on ITP .190 wheels. Mounted up a used set of dune trackers. And Shout out to JD for hooking me up on a last minute order for light bar brackets and a DC conversion for next weekend!! You the man.

Yes, since it is moving the cylinder up/down it is also moving the ports up/down and with the stroke remaining the same, the port timings will be affected to a small degree. I cannot answer how critical this would be in higher power setups though. And FYI Jeff at FAST said these cylinders were setup to run a .031" base so that is what i started with.

Ayesully810 Posted September 22, 2018 Report Share Posted September 22, 2018 got it. if the piston is below the ports at bdc a little because of the base gasket change thats why im curious if it would cause some issues, im not planning on doing it, just wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
