Looks good, its got TZ dribbling with a mix of envy and excitement to see how it goes....

If it makes 30+HP I will break it very gently to him.

Good engagement....there are several high temp epoxy fillers which are metal based so have good thermal conductivity properties. A fillet in epoxy may help....
Some years back a customer who made light fittings for a living was having problems holding thermocouples onto fittings for heat tests. I asked a mate at Air NZ workshops and got some very high temp Araldite which they use for gluing thermocouples onto jet combustion chambers. Can't remember the Araldite number sorry, but these things are about.

Good to know, however I am just relying on the Toolmakers curse. Exact tolerance. The weld should pull them in nice and tight, and they will pull into the gap snugly as well. Should be plenty of swearing if they don't.

You will probably hear me in Christchurch if things go pear shape.

It won't have to make 30hp to do the business.

Thanks ... and its true, at the moment you don't need 30+ hp to do the business, but I expect it could help.

This is where I got to before wrecking my 31hp cylinder, at the time I did not understand the importance of retarding the ignition when running part throttle. After that I got a TPS and ran a 3D ignition map.



This dyno graph was about balancing the main and air correction jets. Blue line = bigger main, fitting a bigger air correction jet leaned the blue line off at the top end to keep the air/fuel mixture correct as thr rpm went up. And after a bit of work it eventually matched the Red line (smaller main jet) for max revs while still having a smooth start to the torque curve.

Seymours cylinder is a very cleaver piece of work, I like it.

i think for are team its been fit and young is the problem the bikes are up to it . but we are fadeing of . so hp and lap times would be a better gain at the start of a gp and hope for the best.. years ago the young guys had slower bikes and the old worked out how to make them fast so was a good leaver . but now we are giving the young guys are bikes because we or i was a has been lol and like to watch them do the business

I will put in next year with MNZ for a 5 lap GP...

We have the GP at the moment, want us to turn it into a dyno shoot out instead of a race?

Suites me ....

It will be tricky, but I think we can get the dyno on the trailer for the next round...

May have to sacrifice some two wheelers to do it though...

[mr bucketracer]

the only dyno i need is one that can lose me weight and make me fit

We could go back to the 75 lap races we had at mt Wellington for the gp ,but I would be keen for 5 laps to not getting any younger.

How the F did you get home 30min before me to make this post? must drive like you ride.

He's an early morning riser, take a look at the time! Either that or a Timelord...
