Re: Full circle crank question...............

The cylinder I am thinking about comes off an engine which is reedcrank inducted & the prospect of s**t loads of ali welding really is not an issue for me, I was just thinking of the viabillity of the standard style crank.

Full circle crank question...............

Hi guys

I am thinking of a cylinder conversion that would need a crankcase induction, I an only at the thinking stage at the moment but my first thought is will a full circle lambretta crankshaft work well with a crankcase reed induction?

A mate of mine has gone to see what he has lurking in the back of his garage, so that might be a starting point. If you are cool wit...

Re: Small frame tuning direction

So does it matter if I get a three speed? Say V90? Is V50 any good? Sorry to be ignorant, but I just don't know, I have never played with a vespa engine before.

In an ideal world what would be my first choise, and second come to that?

again thanks

Re: water cooling Qs

Sorry Carlos, I don't know the answer to your question but if you google it I am sure you will get the answer you need. Can I ask you what water-pump you are using?

Thanks

So what I need to be thinking about is the current schools of thought on the tuning houses - Falc, Zirri, Quatrini - who is really cutting it? And where should I start, what engine is a ...
