Nah I'm in new york. And rick I've watched vids and all. I really don't see how I could have installed it wrong. I just don't get it. I've taken it all apart more then 3 times now.

I should have never touched it in the first place. It was already doin 65. Just wanted more off the line and gears weren't cuttin it.

i am looking at doing the 30.5 upgrade also but have seen you get the 2 mm stroker crank in some kits too, and you have not installed it? so i read, not sure if this is necessary but i would think it would be (so you get more compression) thees nothing really that can go wrong on the build only the piston in the wrong way round,

first of all id check compression, a crude way of doing this would be to put your thumb over the spark plug hole and pull the pull start,

have you done a squish test?

have you tried with standard carb?

have you tried starting wit easy start?

just a thought if you bought this as a kit...... with the +2mm crank

and not fitted it ....option1 has the head inside been machined for the correct

clearance....option 2 are you using just a thicker barrel gasket....

option 3 or did you rebuild using the standard thin barrel gasket......

if option 1 or 2 then your compression/squish will be way out out

my kit didnt come with one. And from what I understand it wasnt needed. I thought about buying it but to spend another 75 bucks on this motor and if doesnt start i'll be pissed.

Never that. I'll try again, but maybe on a different motor.
