Re: Elite 50
For someone who is quoting experiences so often, I would think you would recognize someone elses. This is not theory. It is real world that I have been using for years. I am not talking about just reving the engine, winding it out is taking the revs up by the max.

Re: Elite 50
You obviously have no clue how little air it takes to rev and unloaded engine compared to a loaded engine. What it does unloaded except at idle has nothing to do with down the road performance.eliteguy50 wrote:For someone who is quoting experiences so often, I would think you would recognize someone elses.

Re: Elite 50
Easy Yogi, just curious. Not saying I was on to something but the guy had a question and I figured I would try to diagnose in my minds eye. Not saying it is the best way, but if it did not hit RPMS on the stand then it does give us a easy place to start adjusting from (the stand).Bear45-70 wrote:You obviously have no clue how little air it takes to rev and unloaded engine compared to a loaded engine.

Re: Elite 50
$26 for rings when I did it this summer. $8 for gaskets. Honing might cost you some too.b.ludwig wrote:at 89 lbs of comp. i would say re ring it and start from there if the clutch and belt are new then go for motor new rings cant be but 20 or 30 bucks
