Your best bet is to purchase an override and compare it side by side with an OEM. If you have the access to machines with the proper tooling, it's not hard duplicate at all. Quote
AKheathen Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 haha, yah, i really don't think there is any such literature, just what the guys doing it know. only way you are gonna find out is by building them, whether you are working for a shop that does it, which may present legal problems, preventing you to be allowed to do it. or, you can reverse-engineer, as mentioned, but i don't know what problems that poseses, or you can just design your own systems/cuts. if you spend a day or so reading up on this site, you will find more info than you realize, and, imho, if you can't come up with an override afterwards, then you are probably not gonna make it in the trade. the biggest problem is the machinery to cut them, not as much as just how they work. you will also need to run some r&d and long term hard use trials to find the bugs that will show up.

So Cal Suspension Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 You know what? I just found it! It was hidden underneath the "how to put a street bike motor into a banshee frame" book... Silly me. Quote
RadarRacing Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 They have a book on amazon.com that tells you the secrets builders don't want you to know. I did my overdrive in about 10 mins with the sawzall I use to port cyls. Quote
