I will be posting videos and progress with this engine on my youtube channel as this is a specialized project that not everyone would be interested in.

Great Sid! I am going to make some videos of engine work and enhancements and porting and I will be logging them on my channel along with Desert kart racing both daytime and nighttime races,along with more expansion chamber building and I will have my wife's kart on there and I am going to build a shifter kart and I am going to use one of my KTM race bike engines on it,a 540 four stroke that I used for Desert racing that I have done some trick engine mods to it and it pulls like a freight train on nitrous oxide!

And I am going to watch them all...
![]() Maybe I can learn a few things ![]() And while I like videos, and I'm perfectly able to sit and stare at yt vids for hours, it's a bit sad, that you don't intend to post them up here as well. Since the one thing I do not like on yt is their comment system... too many trolls, absurd sorting mechanics, and overall annoyingly bad. 'sid

As far as trolls go, I weed them out, there are indeed some weirdos in the world for sure! And there are a lot of "You should have done this or you should have done that" OK mister brain you show me what you have done or what you have! I know what you are talking about for sure.

I have five gallons of 91 octane fuel mixed 25:1 with Maxima K2 oil and 4 brand new tires installed on the kart.I am heading out in the morning to the lakebed to set up a course to torture test this engine.
The temps are going to be mid sixties and by the end of the day I more than likely will have burnt the brand new tires up.I will be setting up a course with tight and open sections in order to see how well this engine works in the dirt. |

Dynamite! That oughta be a riot. A dry lakebed really does sound like the ideal place to shake something down. One day, I would like to experience that in person.

![]() I ran five gallons of fuel through this engine today as hard as I could run it and it never missed a beat. My best lap times were when I drove smooth and took advantage of the new powerband that the engine has now. Not too bad for a engine that is intended for use in a utility snowmobile.Kinda like putting lipstick on a pig. ![]() |

This is a 20 gram hollow slug weight inside this wrist pin that I have made for another engine of mine that needed the piston weight to what it was before machining the windows in the skirt.

Well I don't know about genius my friend by any means! I made this slug as to have a .002 press fit and I have three small grooves in the outside diameter that are filled with 638 Loctite retainer compound and I have the slug pressed dead center in the wrist pin and I made sure that the wrist pin diameter did not swell as to cause a problem. This would be easier than balancing the crank for the reduction in piston weight if it were to cause a problem.
