Has anyone ever modified the reed valve into a piston port intake?
A reed engine is faster and stonger than piston ported. When you can work out a powervalve in the exhaust, then you have a monster of an engine.
I have this Yamaha 250cc piston ported motor from a snowmobile. It's a quad port design very similar to the 372xp. I'm planning a future hotsaw build with it.Rotax has been doing it for years as well as few others. I have never seen
a snowmobile with a piston ported motor. Both my SkiDoo RT1000's
have reed valve motors and putting out a mere 175 horse in stock form.
Fastest production sled in there day from 06 to 07.
Oh wow that's going to be a cool project for sure.I have this Yamaha 250cc piston ported motor from a snowmobile. It's a quad port design very similar to the 372xp. I'm planning a future hotsaw build with it.
