Getting all 3 Horse Power out of your GT-5 Sky? (tear down)
Are you getting all 3 Horse Power out of your china 2 stroke? I know I’m not. With the untrue rag joint sprocket, the “California Friendly” catalytic converter exhaust, CNS BS carb, unbalanced crank, Chinese bearings, and unmatched porting, I think I would be lucky to get half the rated horse power for the engine on a good day. So I’m changing all of that. Follow along and leave tips. I’ll also be making videos on how easy doing all this really is.

Re: Getting all 3 Horse Power out of your GT-5 Sky? (tear down)
Maybe after this tutorial you can show us how to get all 2.5 Horse Power out of the HS 49cc 4-stroke. Just a thought for a future topic.......I've got a few tips for this one.

lotsa room for big valves in their scotto, but too big will ruin botton end just like too big of two stroke ports can do the same thing. a happy medium is best for single speed motors. recon chris im looking to see how you unshroud the transfers, maybe relieving the piston crown?
