Bought a totally unassembled engine so I could hands on every part. Figured it beats tearing into an assembled engine. Turns out to be a GT5 I believe which should be a 38mm stroke engine. Anybody have experience with these?
Parts look good and the cylinder has the best plating of any I have had so far. Ports are nice and crisp with almost no flashing, transfers do have the common ridge though.
Don't plan to mod it much, but do plan upgrades. I will run SKF bearings(ordered) and a very high quality caged roller for the wrist pin(got) There are plenty of little things I plan for longevity and reliability.
Im considering modding/converting the clutch to a wet unit using M/C plates. Figured it will extend gear life and maybe quiet them down. Just in the research stages now, but looks like pit bike plates may fit.
