There are almost 30 running the Power "D" ignition...........

Could be 31... but...
...but I know some people would like to see my cheery disposition and help them put it on so we can go riding.  I counted yours since you at least have it in your shop blaster :lol:

I would like to know the timing of all the holes you made in the piston.
It would be really appreciated.
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

So did you put on one of Alex's ignitions?  Did you use a stock base gasket or change the jug height?  I'm assuming the squish was modified. Will you be running on race gas? What's the deck height?

yes he runs a MZB ignition. with the optional lighter flywheel.

Running 2 .020" cometic base gaskets  for a total of .040"     not to raise port time (by product) but because his stacking tolerances needed it for piston to head clearance reasons. (more info on that in his first motor build thread).

Head info is as follows.
13:1 ish compression (un corrected).      42cc head volume.    .010 head gasket.    .0145" piston in hole  

 Squish clearance: .044"  
 88mm width

.48mm head step      

4deg cut  for 4.89mm      to   15deg for 9.66mm

total squish width (measured straight instead of cuts) 14mm from edge till you hit bowl edge

Motor will be run on 25% 100LL avgas and rest 91octane pump fuel.      ONLY because our California fuel SUCKS.    the bike would tolerate just 91 pump fuel (except for maby in the dunes)

Somehow I knew that was coming  :roll:
Can you give us the formula for each stage of the calculations?

Yes Sir.  Is that motor running an 88mm piston?
