Atomic Monkey Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 Anyone got some Blaster cases laying around they want to get rid of? Got a "sweet deal" on a blaster for my kid, turns out the engine is pretty much F.U.B.A.R. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted June 18, 2015 Report Posted June 18, 2015 One nice thing is the blaster cases don't have to be a matched set. Tou need both sides? Be aware they are getting harder to find. Quote
Atomic Monkey Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Posted June 18, 2015 Don't need matching cases... cool! Just need the right side then. The case I have has a stress crack by the main bearing. Looks like the crank was rebuilt at some point by a butcher... I picked up a 4mm Hotrods crank, and then found the crack. Quote
Atomic Monkey Posted June 19, 2015 Author Report Posted June 19, 2015 Found a case half on ebay for over $100. Seems a little much to me... May have to take a different approach, got an old air cooled YZ250 engine that needs a clutch, and if its the right series... a DT stator and flywheel will give me a lighting coil. Still would rather stick with the Blaster engine since I bought the crank... so anyone??? Quote
Surfrjag Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 You need to trench them if you go with that crank... Quote
Atomic Monkey Posted June 19, 2015 Author Report Posted June 19, 2015 You need to trench them if you go with that crank...Trenching shouldn't be a big deal, just need the clearance for the rod end. But I might just have someone else do the head because I can't find the mandrel I made when I did the head on my WR... this is turning into a nightmare of a project! Quote
sheerider11 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 Serious note. Call ken oconnor. I can't see why he wouldn't have some floating around. Quote

sleeper06 Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 I just junked two sets a month ago I still have all the internals if you need them Quote
Atomic Monkey Posted June 23, 2015 Author Report Posted June 23, 2015 I just junked two sets a month ago I still have all the internals if you need themWhat would you want for them? Is there a good kick start spring? That's what started all this. Anyways, looks like that broken piece of spring made it through the gears at least once.Also, might be able to salvage the case. Need to pull the bearing to see where the crack is... hoping its "superficial" Quote
sleeper06 Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 I'll check it out this weekend pay for shipping, like $20 and I'll send you all the internals I have, if crack isn't terrible I should be able to fix it for ya Quote
