Default RE: RCG 15 CC Cylinder rotation

Ok he did turn the cylinder and it did run. Bur here are the reasons you should not do it.
By turning the cylinder you block both of the intake ports. This will kill the power, the engine can’t breathe. What’s the point if the engine does not produce any power?
By turning the cylinder the pins that keep the rings from rotating come dangerously close to the edge of the ports.
I have tried to modify all of these engines and when we are successful it comes out as a new version.
The last and best reason not to do it is that it voids the warranty.
