I was under the impression the deluxe was only 1995 and 62t cyl. Atleast the deluxe I bought was full 62t. I second the notion to just put helicoils in the cylinder, why would you drill them when they come drilled and tapped ready for m8 helicoils from the factory? I did chase the threads with a...

Man lot of idealarc guys here, I had a 300/300 with high frequency option, 25’ of tig and stick leads, full bottle of argon, paid $100 for the whole setup, problem was on 208v the thing would pull a full 100 amps if you put the hammer down

Just finished a job on the machine I want to run these on so should be able to throw some on there, would you be interested in test fitting a 3D printed one to make sure we’re not overlooking anything?

Wow actually looked at the picture again, those googles say shade 10 right on them, definitely would still recommend getting an actual mask though

Those are torch goggles, like a shade 5, meant for welding with a flame not an arc, shade 9-10 is what you’ll want for mig/stick, tig anywhere from 9-12 depending on what you’re doing. Don’t rule out a $50 auto dark helmet, but if you go auto dark make sure it has 4 sensors not just 2. Real...

I’ve been thinking about one of these for a while, you guys seen the stark varg yet though, not really same kinda thing but looks pretty badass

I wonder what a vapor hone would do to it, probably would give it more of a matte finish but not as much as like bead blasting would, wetsand and polish would shine it but a lot of elbow grease consumed in that process lol.

Xfs, I forgot I had put a piece of 1” rubber tubing to keep the flow control valve from rubbing the side of the hull and it came off at some point and got stuck in the scupper flap

I think it’s around 5.8” overall width, don’t have the cad in front of me right now. Yeah I was thinking the manifold before the snout would end at the smallest size someone was likely to run then taper out to whatever size so it’s a smooth transition, that makes the manifold like your lead in...

So your concern is the water in the cooling passages not the pipe? Seems like not that big of a deal to me. Storbeck’s point seems like more of a concern, I’ve seen that point raised before about the wdk pipe. What’s weird to me though is you inject water right in the top of a bpipe with a...

I was really hoping to avoid angling it downwards, definitely complicates making it quite a bit. On my ski I left the motor at an angle so water draining back into the cylinders wasn’t as much of a concern. Idk how many others are doing it like that or using the wdk upright kit?

I can send you a spreadsheet that I made for calculating cranking compression numbers that got me pretty close for making domes if you want

That’s one of the things I wanted to hash out, senor asked for 70mm, shown in the cad pics is 2.5” before the step and I think 2.93” after the step as measured off a pfp manifold. I’m leaning towards 2.5” before the 3rd piece and then drafting up to whatever you guys want from there with the...

A couple guys asked about these after I made a one off one for myself seen here: https://www.x-h2o.com/threads/66e-conversion.198714/page-2 Planning on a run of 10 or so in the next month or two. I've changed the design somewhat with some stuff I learned on the first one: I changed to 3 pieces...

Pics or it didn’t happen

Are there any reports yet using the new 62t zeel with an aftermarket lightweight flywheel such as tbm, etc?

My eme had an extension from driveshaft to coupler, to me that seems easiest, if you need one turned lmk I could probably squeak one out sometime in the near future. I bought the tap to make a different one for my eme but I want to say that mines m18 not 20

forged pistons are stronger but that also means harder and also they have a higher CTE, cast pistons are weaker but have a lower CTE. In a naturally aspirated two stroke, where piston strength isn't really the main concern I agree with wax that the cast piston that lets you run a tighter...

Seems like thicker than 1/8 or 3/16 aluminum you can just throw as many amps as your want at it, I’m usually wide open on a dynasty 210 on 1/8 or thicker, just move slower the thicker and bigger the part gets. Once you get to like 1/2-3/4” you really just gotta get some helium and weld on dc. Dc...

Looks like for the price of those big bore cylinders you could have a complete tpe964 short block right? Or are you talking about getting big bore sled cylinders elsewhere? Gp800 is just a bore job away from power valves and 866-992cc depending on how far you go
