Title: No Counter Balancer Post by mikestrikes on 08/11/09 at 18:36:13 So what would be the bad part of ditching it ? I know it will vib more but I also know it will perk up a good bit with out having to spin that thing.... Now if this motor had lead bearings I wouldnt, but these large ball bearing style motors only have them for tame'n vibs... |
Title: Re: No Counter Balancer Post by justin_o_guy2 on 08/11/09 at 23:08:35 Wouldnt that also act as flywheel? If its lightened too much, would you be forced to jack the idle up? I wouldnt do more than lighten it w/o a nod from someone with firsthand experience. |
Title: Re: No Counter Balancer Post by Serowbot on 08/11/09 at 23:15:30 Just guessin',... but on a big single, maybe stresses to the connecting rod and bearings with accel/decel pulses... That may be stupid,... just thunkin' out loud.... :-? |
Title: Re: No Counter Balancer Post by srinath on 08/12/09 at 05:00:11 You can ditch it, atleast in the 2 cyl I know of ... and the thing will spin up crazy fast, but you have to balance the crank and even so, it shakes like crazy except in a small rev range, like between 7-9K it will run acceptably smooth. In fact balanced the right way the guy said it was buttery smooth ... better than stock in that range. Cool. Srinath. |

The entire valvetrain would take a beating. We think the cam chain has a short life now.. ;D |
Title: Re: No Counter Balancer Post by mikestrikes on 08/12/09 at 10:51:48 I will look into this more before I do it.... and with this heavy'r Chevy piston.... if I can make that work may help it or hurt it 2x ! |

Title: Re: No Counter Balancer Post by mikestrikes on 08/17/09 at 16:18:51 Well I.m not going to take the chance and keep it.... I would try it with out first but I just dont want to bust open the cases again to reinstall it... And that Chevy piston is now just a shelf bit... well unless someone would send me a jug and head to try and make it work but the jug would need spacing up close to half an inch, so a longer cam chain and not using your head to frame mounts would be required... |
