    I hate it when you get a sticky crank

    Just that one rod is locked up. On the bottom pic you can see about 3 of the needle bearings or pins poking their heads out.

    Drag/Street bike with no Alternator

    If the battery is in good shape you shouldn't have any problems. The biggest draw on the battery is when starting it, heck I bet you could go 100 miles.

    I hate it when you get a sticky crank

    Yeap a 60 hp shot of nitrous and I do have a straight cut crank but I broke that one too along with a wrist pin :cry: I lost the pic of my old angle cut gear that I broke the center out of, it lasted about 2,000 runs.

    I hate it when you get a sticky crank

    Self taught RC pilot, what goes up hard comes down with a bang. That's my quarter-scale P51 I built 20 years ago when station at Zweibruecken AB Germany. There's only so much german beer a guy can drink when it gets dark at 5 pm, so I needed a hobby. Swings a 2 foot prop on a Super Tiger 30cc...

    I hate it when you get a sticky crank

    I hurt the crank early this year. I swapped out my 36 NOS jets with some 60's and only ran 5.70 in the 1/8. My MPH was only 122 so something was a miss. Getting around to putting the motor backed together and thought that crank would make a nice pic hanging in the air ?? I'm starting to feel...

    How usful is re-gearing for drag applications?

    By gearing it higher like droping a tooth on the front sprocket your mph may still be the same but your ET can drop like a rock. Anytime you can get out of the hole faster to the 60' and 330' is a good thing. If you break down your timeslips you'll notice your 330 to 660 & 660 to 1320 time...

    degreeing cams ... why?

    Moving the lobe centers toward each other is good for bottom end power and spreading the lobe centers farther apart is good for top end power. Some of us like to go past the 9K redline by a few thousand so guess which way we like to go ?? Advancing the intake closing number will cause an...

    2009 Track Headlines...

    First run last night was 6.60 at 107. I just went alittle too wild with my cam timing, the bike was a dog off the line but did come alive down the track. So off came the cam cover and after a little adjusting the next run was a 6.14 at 112. Now that's more like it. Had another 1.99 nos run...

    Replacing Clutch. Concerns.

    Just leave that one steel plate alone, it won't hurt anything. Cause if you remove the wire you'll most likey won't be able to re-install it. Just start with a fiber then a steel then a fiber and so on until you end up with a fiber against the pressure plate.
