  1. What is squish at? What is compression? Any timing? And what fuel? Only 10 thou off the head for sure?
  2. Cranking compression isn't the sole factor on picking fuel. Always know the calculated compression and use the cranking compression as an indicator of what the motor is doing inside. You can have a motor built for race fuel, but have an exhaust large enough to let some volume pass. So the number may look lower on a gauge. But kudos to you for checking with multiple gauges.
  3. Well, not much info on that unicorn swap.
  4. But my brother's friend's uncle said that .....
  5. There is a dude on Facebook selling conversion kits for the motor mounts and what not.
  6. No! If it's assembled right it'll be fine. Moving the cylinder lower without adjusting the ports to accomadate is gonna make it run like turd.
  7. Just Devcon the cases together and never deal with it again...
  8. Doesn't quite work like you're thinking. But you would certainly benefit ditching the spacer. It will require porting and different domes in a cool head or a machined stock head.
  9. Someone needs these!
  10. It's old, but a set of these popped up while looking for unicorn goodies. http://m.ebay.com/itm/142353362438?_mwBanner=1
  11. ^ That. Tony at TDR turned me on that stuff. I believe it's called Toyota Seal Packing.
  12. No. I snatched up the white set, and I think I may still prefer the OEM Blue and White.
  13. Hey, why does mine gotta be on the bottom?!
  14. Well friggoff then.
  15. Got a rear fender to?
  16. Race gas doesn't properly combust without enough compression or when there is a lack of timing. If the motor is set up to run premium, that's the fuel it should have in it. It is an absolute myth that race gas adds performance in and of it self. All that crap you hear people say about their motor running like a raped ape on the race gas from Sunoco is just nonsense. Think of it this way. Octane is a number designated to a fuel to show its resistance to combust. 91 has a lower resistance to combust then 110. So if you take a motor that is meant to properly burn 91-93 premium, it doesn't squeeze or compress the mixture enough to combust 110 octane race fuel properly. Leaving you with a blubbery half ass burn. So can race fuel make a motor run better? Only if it's a motor set up to do so.
  17. That said, I've got a set of white I'd sell for $780 shipped.
  18. Or, buy bike pegs. Weld a bolt to the frame where you want the peg. Tighten the nut inside the peg.
