The durations i stated for 58mm are asuming that the durations stated by paulski are correct for a 60mm stroke on that barrel and asuming the crank has a 107 rod and standard deck height piston.

yeah dead right there,rod is 107 and i have the engine on the bench and have methodically measured the timings with a degree disc and a fixed pointer. that port calculator is a handy gadget tho if you got all your measurements accurate. ive just sent the barrel off to MB to sort with a racetour piston, so i will hopefully fit it and see wot its all about soon??? anyone recommend wot pipe to use with that sort of porting??? i have a sterling /or a scorpion /or a remade fresco/ or a ancillotti clubman .....im running it on a 30mm oko carb.... i would like to make it rideable and not a peaky revmonster...wot u reckon guys, will post more info if i get it in and running.

i would prefer the timings with a 58mm crank in it, you might find the 60 more revier but you will have morre cc, run it and see how it is with both 58/60 cranks

well after havin a chat with mr broady about the pros and cons of that barrel, im havin a think on wots next, either tweek my muggy 225 to make it more realistic or maybe i sell muggy and by rt220??? not sure just yet, prob spend 300 quid making the muggy perform somewhere near rt220 spec but then muggy has cost me best part of 700quid so why bother im askin myself..... any thoughts guys????
