026 squish is all over the place.ranging from .049 down to .035 rolling over from TDC there is a sudden stop like solder on top of the piston which means there is definately zero squish somewhere.Silly Putty or playdough time.

4 hang me down thing a ma bobbies.needs some sanding.
i see right now that all treaded holes need chased with a tap including the sparkplug and decomp holes due to Gentlman not cleaning them when he pulled them out of that hole in the ground he's been casting them in.

Ok heres the initial start of the 026 and 036 cylinders i recieved.both will recieve long term usage to gauge longevity.
i have no 44.7mm oem cylinder but the test cylinder will be compared to a 44mm stock cylinder.
tests will be conducted with 90 octane non ethanol with lucas semi synthetic at 32:1
everyone will have to bare with me as work invades on play time.
(word of caution if love life does happen to call sasquatch will disappear on your asses)

No report tonight guys other than chasing the threads for the muffler bolts and top cover studs.those threads aren't cut they are cast with the cylinder........actually the threads are the best part of the cylinder so far.don't get me wrong the cylinders can be much better with some work from the factory.
More tomorrow hopefully if I feel up to it.got a wisdom tooth out today.pain med are helping a little.got an appointment in the morning with a pretty good sized dead willow oak next to a house.hope I can drop it without taking out another tree and hot tub.oh and maybe some hemlocks and power lines.lol

That's some uglyness. Looks like they give zero fecks about QC on the silly.

Wisdom teeth removal sucks... I was young and had I think 4 @ once. Couldn't brush for a few days. It was not pleasant.

 

[Jughead]

Yeap felt like I had been kicked by a horse last night.they said no smoking for 5 days.....yeah right! I'm having my coffee this morning too.lol I will let the beer go a while.

ok first round for The ms260.
the bevels on the ports need some attention.someone really went to the extreme on the grinder.excess bubbles and pitting in the ports is present.outside finish is excellent.the piston seems to be lighter than an oem 44mm and requires 1.5 mm rings instead of the oem 1.2mm rings.(take note if using aftermarket meteor 1.5mm instead of 1.2mm)
rings,wrist pin and one set of clips look to be great.the eared circlips need to be tossed.according to the looks they are shiney and have no temper or spring treatment.my accessment is they will bend on installation.View attachment 55887 View attachment 55888 View attachment 55890 View attachment 55891

What do you guys use for circlips i use oem as often as possible but some am pistons just have that tiny groove do you recut for oem or i there an alternative.

 

[Jughead]

i usually try to use the supplied circlips.usually have no problems with tecomec or meteor.others i use oem if they fit and have reused the used ones.

 

[Jughead]

going to put thru usc to get sand off of outside of cylinders before i get them around my bottom ends.
