Evening peeps. Loving the sun! How y’all are?

I survived grocery shopping with my wife. Only 380.00.....what a great way to spend the evening.

That she's well enough to go do it, priceless.

Shopping hungry were ya??

What Kevin is talking about is increasing velocity.....period. Find a way to take away case volume rather than add any more. Like stuffers.

Kinda like the opposite of hogging out the lowers. Fill them instead. I don’t know if it’s a velocity thing or a capacity thing. The Chinese ones usually have way too much blow down, and by the time you raise the uppers way up they don’t run for *s-word. Filling the transfer tract might help

What about the DC cylinder you had Randy?

Sometimes an 066 will flat out haul ass with big lower windows, and sometimes they suck. I don’t really have them figured out yet but it seems to have something to do with the stock port timing. Hang onto the ones that have an exhaust at 100 and 19° bd

You might have answered my question.

My thoughts are that hogging the lowers might cause a velocity stack effect efficiently funneling mix into the transfers. I only ever hogged the lowers on the first cylinder I ported, a Chinese 026. I never ran it, but it is still running to this day, and the owner is quite happy with it. I will say that 028S lowers are too deep in my opinion and need all around filling.

True enough.

Not really. Ate supper before we went.

Timing numbers were insane in that jug. Compared to what we are all doing today, it wasn't very impressive to be honest.

 

[Kiwioilboiler]

I miss that funny mfer.

Me too. Dr Juan had his PhD in Sarcasm.

Hydraulic -man lift - non conductive. Hope I can splice and not replace. It’s strung thru the whole boom

lol doesnt look like high pressure

You will have a hard time getting acceptable fittings to crimp on that hose David. If you decide to pull new hoses through your boom sections they make a double run hose preformed as one just for tele handlers and manlifts. May want to check into it. Non conductive hyd hose for these machines use nylon braid instead of wire so shorter life is expected.

Thanks! @timg

Love it! So very very Kiwi!

Don't give me ideas....I just finished putting this together on the weekend. He needs to attach a rope to the handle as well, so it's dual-purpose...outboard and anchor. I know they work well as the latter.

hows you slacker

 

[markds2]

hows you slacker

I'm good Dallas, slacking as usual. Hows you? How's Maddie?
I've got the usual lineup of saws to rebuild. MS440, 044, 2 x MS661C (one seized the other's been in a flood) and a seized MS261.
I've been working on giving this old girl a full service too, when I have a chance.
