macgillivary Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 ok so im confused i bought a modquad head right, with 21cc domes so i could still run pump gas anyways i put it on without looking, stupid mistake and then i blew my top end in my bike about 2 weeks later when i pulled the head off i noticed on each dome is has the number 17 engraved on them but still on the packaging of my domes it said 21cc so what domes do i have 21 or 17cc? now second question if i have 17cc domes and trying to run pump gas in them instead of race gas would that have helped cause my top end to blow, there was a hole in my left piston right under the plug although the bike has alot of miles on it, it was bound to happen soon enough Quote

I would ask for some money for repairs since it was obviously their mistake giving your the wrong domes. Quote
05bansh Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 If it says '17' on the side of the dome then the domes are 17. If I were you with the package saying 21 and 21's were what you ordered, I would be giving mod quad a call. I am not 100% sure on the detonation of running the pump gas with that high of compression, it very well sounds like it could have caused the hole in the piston though. Quote
macgillivary Posted May 28, 2005 Author Report Posted May 28, 2005 ahhhhhhhh crap, i just looked and have throw out the packeging they came in still gonna call them though worth a shot, its not a good bill i got coming gotta bore it cuz the piece that broke out messed up my sleeve, new pistons, and possibly new crank bearings from all the piston shavings that floated around in there.......... and obviosly the right sized domes awell may as well get some porting done while its all apart should be good when i get it all back together Quote
05bansh Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 Thats shitty man! Do you still have your reciept? Look at it from a positive point of view though, you get a new top end and you might as well port it! Quote
macgillivary Posted May 28, 2005 Author Report Posted May 28, 2005 ya thats the way im lookin at it, I got it all apart so why not get some work done to it that i wanted to do like you said new top end and some porting done the 35's cant push any more through those little ports i gotta get some bigger ones put in some wisecos and ill be a destroying my buddies even more Quote
