Well I was out in the garage today looking for the stock needle for the carb and couldn't find it, but did find the old piston from the last rebuild.....it's only got like 5 hours of riding on it and is a perfectly good Wiseco piston but since I was a moron and sent it to another guy to get rebuilt when I started out with ATVs, I had the element of surprise of him giving me an out of round bore. 8-|
Anyways......looking at the piston, I noticed the intake windows on the side of the piston and it kind of strikes me as odd that everybody does intake port work.....yet nobody usually does it concurrently with opening up the intake port windows on the side of the piston.......isn't that kind of self defeating? :-/ What's the point of enlarging intake ports if the windows of the piston don't match the ports you just enlarged? Now I do have auxiliary intake ports to the transfers, but had a question about that as well. Wouldn't the high velocity air travel of auxiliary intake ports to the transfers create turbulence in the high velocity flow of the transfer ports?
As a side note....not sure if anybody has it, but does anybody have any pics of the piston at TDC and BDC and the intake port at those locations?
