    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    Yep thanks for derailing..............I'm surprised it took this long. I sure do, but since these articles require a subscription, I cant access them. Mind screenshotting the part where "anywhere under 2k rpm, oil is falling or stationary" is mentioned? Again not trying to be a dick, just...

    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    I've read the references you sited, and they all speak to oil migration, and quite frankly all from Harry Klemm @ group K, except for the oil calculator. Specifically the two articles speak to the amount of premix required at a given rpm to equal a constant amount of oiling. And while they...

    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    Mind sharing the article, video or other source of reference to back this up? Not to be a dick, but I'm more interested in seeing the evidence of this claim. I enjoy watching these types of super slow-mo videos. I mean someone, somewhere must have documented this.

    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    My understanding is the oil catchers only function when the engine is not running and unburnt premix drains down the transfers into the catchers and then into the bearings for the next startup. When the engine is running, the air flowing through the cases passes over this hole and draws...

    New billet manifold

    Couple of questions: Will this work with 64X reeds? When will you be doing the presale?

    Thanks, the kit came with a base gasket, but simple enough to reproduce if needed.

    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    Here are the results. This is my first attempt. There are two small blemishes, and I might do another set of cases (because I am a perfectionist when it comes to this sort of stuff) But all in all, I'm super satisfied with the results. The cases with the pulse lines and studs on the intake...

    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    Then I got to work. I own my own Bridgeport. So boring the case to accept the base of the cylinders was straight forward. And I used a .500" ball end mill to radius the transfers and enlarge the boost port. Then I got creative with the bridgeport. This was for the tunnel/finger port work...

    Reproducing ET Crankcases

    I was lucky enough to find a complete NOS ET 967 kit for a fair price. Thing is since Art is unfortunately no longer among us, and Mark Erikson isn't up to speed yet, availability of a crankcase is non-existent. By pure coincidence, a local friend has his 1107 torn down for maintenance and...

    2021 Rickter XFS Ninja Pro V2 in Pennsylvania

    So we needed to make an intake grate for this ski, and quite frankly I'm surprised that RRP thinks it's a good idea to only offer a carbon grate and price it so that it becomes almost unattainable for the average Joe. The only options were to wait until 2022 and fork over $560 and continue to...

    2021 Rickter XFS Ninja Pro V2 in Pennsylvania

    This was our first build, and she's together and it went fairly smoothly. I was actually surprised that I didn't miss any parts. This was a father and son build project. It took us about 25-30hrs to assemble. Before we started we covered the hull in packing paper and secured it with blue...

    Cerakote on a 701

    Thanks for the compliments, truth be told, this isnt the first Cerakote project I have done. I had done a spare engine for our 650 sx back in Oct & I've done a bunch of dirt bike parts also.

    Cerakote on a 701

    I used the air cure Glacier Silver (C-7700) and Burnt Bronze (C-148). Each part was chemically stripped, any casting imperfections were sanded/ground smooth. Each part was sandblasted w 80 grit aluminum oxide, soaked in acetone, then Cerakoted. Stainless and brass carburetor components were...
