Billet Cylinder

[QJS]

Just thought I'd share my excitement with you all, this has taken me over 12 months (partly due to some thieving scumbag stealing my computer and Cad drawings).
This is for my 8mm Stroker engine, Water tested today and all is goooooooood. I've still to run it in, re-jet the carbs way to rich, and stick a new prop on. I ended up using a 13/15 out of the recycle bin as I'm waiting for the right prop to arrive.
Some pics from starting "block" to in the ski.

Awesome. :hail:

That boost port sure is a lot wider then stock. :bigeyes:

Does it have the same port timing and duration as the 61x cylinder?

Son of a bitch. Wide boosts, thick mains!!! Look at the dividing wall between jugs.
