junkyarddog Posted April 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 So what's the whole trinity thing? Is trinity who makes this cylinder? I'm always scared of trinity port work Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hercalmighty Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Trinity owned the rights to the cheetah cylinders. When the owner of trinity sold the company he opened a new shop and took the cheetah rights with him.

hercalmighty Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 To be honest, I have a 499 cheetah (72mm bore, 7mil crank) and I think you will get more out of a serval just because the builders have done a ton of work on them to get a great power and smooth delivery out of them. There is lots more info and more parts available for the serval then the cheetahs. Plus to build a serval is a lot cheaper then a cheetah.

trickedcarbine Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Letting Harry from Trinity have the rights to the Cheetah is the reason they never took off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hercalmighty Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 I agree with you tricked. It sucks. I think there is a ton of potential in these cylinders Sent from my VS990 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 the PV cheeto can and will make more powa and broader than a serval. internally they are nearly identical. the PV will allow low end AND big time overrev. SO many times i have seen cheeta's set up completely different with known bad combo's instead of using what was learned from the cub's setback and hold up's weird port timing layouts and retarded dome setups.. if you built 2 same stroke same cc cheeta/ serval and did everything the same internally the pv motor would dominate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
