trickedcarbine Posted September 10, 2016 Report Posted September 10, 2016 But not all Cheetahs are PV. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk All Cheetahs are set up for PV's in the casting process. It's up to the builder to install block offs or the PV's 1 Quote

sheerider11 Posted September 10, 2016 Report Posted September 10, 2016 Pv you can "control" the power and when. Super sweet set up and I would run one in a second if I could. Block offs are just wfo exhaust. Quote

Block offs are just wfo exhaust. Do the power valves change the port timings? How does it work? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
trickedcarbine Posted September 10, 2016 Report Posted September 10, 2016 Some are controlled by an electronic servo and move according to RPM. But most are pneumatic. That means they use exhaust pressure to actuate. When pressure builds, the valve opens and similulates the exhaust port getting bigger. Almost like it goes from low timing trail type port to a higher duration drag port. You can tune them using spring pressure and some use bleeder jets. Kind of like a turbo wastegate. 1 Quote
Ayesully810 Posted September 10, 2016 Author Report Posted September 10, 2016 Wow.. So you can set it up so it almost makes power all over the place then right ? How come more people don't run these? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
JTmachining Posted September 10, 2016 Report Posted September 10, 2016 Cheetos came casted solid like others. PV part in cyl has to be machined. Not all were machined. Also there's a lot more to DM than Cheeto and others than wats listed here 1 Quote

trickedcarbine Posted September 10, 2016 Report Posted September 10, 2016 Cheetos came casted solid like others. PV part in cyl has to be machined. Not all were machined. Also there's a lot more to DM than Cheeto and others than wats listed here For sure. Serval, Cub, DM, DMX, Cougar, Caracal, Puma, Sphinx, Liger, etc... All with different bore & stroke combinations. Different stud lay outs, different spread, different deck heights, different exhaust flange just about anything you are willing to pay for and wait for they can do. Have you seen any Cheetahs plated and un machined from CP without it being a DM? I tried to get one like that and Harry stated his were all machined. I thought he was doing all the finish work on PV's? Quote

SandSlingerOR Posted September 10, 2016 Report Posted September 10, 2016 I got a silly question, why is the pv basically useless on bigbore 250rs? All those guys say it's a waste to buy a 350 on up PV cylinder. Quote
