how to tell cylinder types

Recommended Posts

I've been shopping around for a 4 mil shee and i was wondering if theres a way to tell what type of cylinder it has without tearing it down. Do the aftermarket cylinders have a brand name etched on them or something?

Last winter I wanted to start a pipes, carbs and cylinders chart that stated all the different types with most common uses. I thought it would be fairly simple, but it's actually pretty tough considering all the different setups. Maybe this winter I will put together a chart with all the different cylinder types with bores and strokes and the different pipes and carbs and what they're usually used for. I think it'd be an awesome addition to the BansheeHQ Tech Info page.

i think that would be a bad ass idea and would come in handy for us

so it seems like aftermarket cylinders are typically a monoblock and the stocks are seperate jugs. thanks for the replies.

 

I've got another question. If you have a 400 cub, can you drop in a 4 mil crank without much modification? I would assume the domes may need to be changed as well as the timing and jetting. What about porting?

 

Thanks
