Here is a project I am finally starting. I think I will paint it black.





Here is a pic of the AF16 I will install. I will put a 50mm, 9to1's, ect. Same old stuff. lol Its nice since I have the parts right on the shelf.

Gonna port match the block and stuff? If not i would go with a nickle sil bore ported to corsa maps from darrin. The boys still tell tales of that white arnada with the ministroker nickle sil and 9:1 gearing. Stil cracked 70!

Match the boost port. Nah im just gonna leave it just like it is. I have never noticed any difference to be honest with you. If you break the cylinder in right it will have long life either way. I use to install a lot of these in Vegas in that dry extreme heat and they held up fine without matching the case to the boost port on the cylinder. In Vegas we dont have that sweet air like you have on the islands but the cylinders hold up fine. I will run my ball hone to semi-chamfer the ports and smooth the bore a little more even. Thats about it.

Back in the day I use to sell the single ring Nikasil kits for the dio and the jog. They kinda sucked if you ask me. The plating would chip and wear to fast for my liking. In dirtbikes we use Nikasil a lot and they hold up fine but like always they wear out eventually. If you ever need any Nikasil plating done let me know. My son has a sponsor for racing and the name of the place is called Kustom Kraft. The owner is a good freind of mine and im sure I can get any of you a good discount. Anyone ever use ceramic coated pistons?
