From bad Max

Thanks for the reply Steve.

Then from what you say the old theory of shorter stroke is quicker off the line it true for two stroke engines also.

Did something today just for kicks

Got a little bored today so thought I would have some fun.

I have a lot of JC engines crank cases that I can not get cranks, piston and cylinders for but have a lot of parts for DLE.

So I took a crank piston and cylinder and installed it in one of the JC crank cases, All I had to do was shorten the crank bearing spacer about 1/2mm, move the sensor and drill out the cylinders for 5mm bolts and all went together good, Even the squash came out good and has good compression.

Kind of looks funny because the crank case is a little wider than the base of the cylinder.

Got to late for me to run it today but will give it a try in the next couple day’s and see how it does.
