ESE's works engine tuner

Interesting stuff, husaberg. I just checked out EMOT's site and they don't appear to list this Hi-temp paint anymore. As a typically Buckeeter I was thinking more about my cooling mod's as relates to a existing set of crankcase's but if one had a blank design sheet, I too would go for a cooling jacket between the gearbox and the crankwell. I am starting to look at the cooling of the lower half of a Two Stroke like how boy racer's think of there intercooler's on there turbo engine's.

Swede Patrick mentioned he made his one mixing anutspalter ceramic coat and paint

This stuff is likely very close to what the emot was using not sure how it would cope with petrol

but I would get a can of ceramic splatter and a can of high temp exhaust paint and spray 50-50 into a lid and voila....

It's good to know there are options. I would like to know wobbley's opinion on Hi-temp coatings. As he strikes me as a man who doesn't put up with things that look like they work but are more show than go.

I don't know whether Martijn Stehouwer ever offered that Russian insulation varnish on his EMOT website. It's rather specialized stuff and most people who might be interested in it know Martijn personally, so there was no need to advertise it. There are bound to be other useful items that aren't listed on his website; it can't hurt to send an email.

A cooling jacket between the crankcase and the gearbox is definitely a good idea. But it doesn't necessarily have to be a liquid jacket.
Most plastics have poor heat conductivity, especially compared to aluminium. I once worked on a 125cc Rotax kart engine, which was actually a 250cc engine into which Rotax had placed a 125 cc crankshaft. There was plenty of space around the crankshaft in the crankcase, which I filled with a plastic ring that I had cut from a 4-inch water pipe.
It worked great. Not because of the reduction in crankcase volume (which was actually more favorable for power than the small crankcase volumes of the “real” 125 cc engines of the time), but because it significantly reduced contact between the fuel/air mixture and the hot crankcase walls.
