Re: Electrex stator plate- odd wiring!
Cheers Daggs, I'll trace the wiring as per your suggestion. I'll post what I find so that if anyone else has one of these the results will come up on a search. Yes Carlos, I have a flywheel with it with a black plastic fan that's secured with allen bolts. It looks like no other lammie flywheel I've ...

Belt drive fitting
I've also got a belt drive kit that I bought from a well known auction site in 2013. No instructions came with it, but it is new and complete. There's an issue with the oil throw washer though- do I retain it? It would appear that the belt will rub on it if I leave the washer on. There is also a ste...

Electrex stator plate- odd wiring!
I've got what looks like an early version of an Electrex Lammie electronic stator and flywheel, the problem being the wires are all different colours to the standard Indian flavour we're all used to. I've got a brown, two yellows, a black/white and a black/red. Anyone know what they correspond to as...

Re: Casa 185 piston edge (deck?) to Exhaust port height
Ok, many thanks. I'm going to stick with the 1mm above the bottom of the port, and see how it goes. I'll report back with findings...

Re: Casa 185 piston edge (deck?) to Exhaust port height
Yep, re squish, I'm at 1.1mm as is, so I'm loath to fit anything more than a 0.5mm packer, and ditch the fibre base gasket.

Re: Casa 185 piston edge (deck?) to Exhaust port height
I'm struggling with this one. The theory seems to indicate that raising the exhaust port (or lowering the piston, whichever way you want to look at it) gives greater power higher up the rev range at the expense of low down torque- something I'm keen to avoid as the Casa kit is all about torque. So i...

Casa 185 / RT195 piston edge (deck?) to Exhaust port height
Hi all, just building what I hope is going to be a grunty little Casa 185 engine. For maximum torque should the edge of the piston crown (is that the deck?) be below the bottom of the exhaust port by 1mm or above it? I'm sure I read '1mm below' somewhere, but can't find the info. Any tips appreciate...
