Nothing?

the upper intake holes are open to the boost port for a timed cycle, so they will releave some of the under piston charge and pressure.   not much. but those holes are bigger than the others for that reason. (not seen in picture)

Very nice.
I hope this works well.
I have to get another engine done before spring....
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

Isn't that ring end gap a little large?

larger than Id like.

but your hard pressed to get any tighter with off the shelf rings and pistons.   hell last JunkCO (wiseco) piston I had around, specd in at .025"

the only way I have been able to get tighter than .017 is custom hand fit rings.    which only my bike see;s    as its alot of work

in a cut off top coke can.  good place gremlin.



.0140" in the hole deck hight.

which will bump the compression up a smidge to 13:1 even.

and drop the squish clearance down to around .044"

all   "ISH"   based off the old numbers on the motor.
