Well I'v got a whole bottle through the engine now, spraying with out the propane and no issues. It had to of been getting past the top ring and lighting off.

E98 fuel and up to a 16 jet now. Should be about 10hp. 10.8 AFR on E98 and creeps to 12.5ish on spray. Seems just fine. Scouting for a decent hemi motor now to put my good parts in. Surprisingly hard to find all of a sudden.

Dang, I recently sold my neighbor a stock hemi 212 with less than 5 hours for $60. Did not know I was sitting on a goldmine :p

Glad your having fun! Are you going to attempt a wet shot fuel system?

Not sure how far I can go honestly. I feel like 10-11hp is ALOT! likely only making 10 or so to start with. And if I can run 10:0 AFR on E98 and only lean out to 12's AFR wise with a 10-11hp shot, The need for added enrichment isn't really there IMO. I'll Probably step down to a 6hp shot and shoot for a little more power NA with a much larger cam. It's fun! but I don't want to be replacing motors every few weeks either.

I compare it to spraying around a 300 shot on a typical V8. The motor in it now is super old. Was a spare I had laying around and it started knocking today. I ran the hemi HG with 2 .010 shims on either side. Thing was likely below 8:1 with the dished piston in it. Didn't blow... but sounds horrible. I didn't have any advance in it IGN wise but the aftermarket flywheels come with 28* in them already. Not sure if thats an issue or not.

I picked up a hemi cam and springs since last time I bought a motor hemi was they had. Now all I can find is non hemi's. :mad2:

Guess I'll just have to wait and see.

Yeah, I hear ya. Thanks for the perspective. Knock knock , who's there? :surrender:

What is the difference with the hemi cam? I put a "hemi" cam in a lifan 212cc, nothing has gone wrong yet.
