372 2 piece head

[mdavlee]

Finally got around to building a head. This is on a 51.4mm cylinder I broke the base and couldn't bolt it down normally.

It runs. Now I got to finish porting it. Exhaust is way low still and compression is a bit high.

Those are some nice OSHA approved chainsaw flops you got on there.

 

[Redfin]

Steel toe flips haha

I figured there'd be safety police out today. [emoji41] almost got away with it.[emoji23]

 

[srcarr52]

I've cut in flops before too, but I can't stand the feeling of the chips between my toes.

I was too excited it didn't have an air leak.

Couldn't resist. I too, am cursed with a jean wearing leg tan.

Guess I'm kinda in this group as I have test cut a 30" log with a 111s and Homie 750 in my boxers wearing slippers. It didn't feel much different than firing my blown alcohol roadster in shorts and flip flops. Though nitro gets me wearing at least jeans and a T shirt, oh yea, and ear protection as that stuff just plain sounds scary without.

I'm checking this out again tonight. My little one fell asleep early and the oldest and wife is gone. Transfers are pretty close.

 

[mdavlee]

It run better with the nitro. I guess the compression is about right for that.

 

[Redfin]

That rc shop I told tou about is closed Mike. Im gonna look elsewhere.

Nice lookin' wash! Is comp still at 230? What percentage of nitro and meth?

Yes. 30%.

I'll try to get some mixed up for you. I have a gallon of pure nitro now. Just have to order 5 gallons of VP m5.

Is it done yet?

Nope. Been messing with a stihl. It's sitting there. Need to get back on a 65cc one for the 4 cube. Then there's those pesky 7900s. I do keep looking at it and thinking of cutting the head off a 65cc cylinder. If it was a touch bigger it woukd be on a 46 already

 

[Jswanson]

Broken base and you saved it. Very neet. Limited stuff like this here. Others disappeared.

 

[mdavlee]

I'll be doing another couple as soon as I have time.
