Dan,
I built the engine,
35/36 bhp sorry no graph!
Definately not publishing the port map (sorry lol)
Guy Topper made the exhaust
Patio furniture has vanished completely after the last storm and theres no room in the house for the tumble dryer !
Dmc
Quite correct !
Oh and ya can't beat a good hammer

That Dan is getting far to cheeky...drunkmunkey6969 wrote:Yeah...i do!doug wrote:Erm its a TS1. If you have any specific questions i'll try to answer them.
Who built the engine?
How much BHP does it have?
Do you have a graph to show the power curve and torque? (it must be catching)
When can we see a port map?
What are the port timings?
What is your carb and jetting spec?
What pipe is that?
Does your patio furniture blow away when its windy?
Why dont you have the tumble dryer in the house?
Lets start with those and we'll take it from there......................
I'll answer for Doug as I know him and he likes me... (well ,I know him anyway
)The Graph is in the post(oh sorry there's a strike on)..Port timings...well I like a glass of port about 9.30pm and always at christmas..The carb is off a motorcycle I think. The pipe? Well its No big secret its just something that Guy and myself probably spent ages designing and as for my patio furniture and tumble dryer--MIND YER OWN BLOODY BUSINESS..thats top secret

forgive my maybe silly questions ,but i,m intersested to know (considering its as you say a TS1 kit)why you chose to convert it to use LHS carb,
i can appreciate the use of bigger reed blocks,6 or 8 petal etc ,but this could have been done on the RHS,and the pipe routed up and over from the near side..
i,m sure you have a very good reason for doing this ,considering the work involved,its just that i dont understand it as yet ...........
i could understand a rapido kit converted to reedvalve this way........

Tbh if rightly or wrongly you convert a TS cylinder to use an external reed block the work involved makes no real difference which side you put it. In this particular case the left hand side works out marginally better for the design/shape of inlet and crankcase boost port that at the time i thought was best. That said the next motor will have it on the other side but still external.
