23cc and 26cc engines sitting around, what to do with them?

[MisterK71]

Hey all, I have a 23cc and a 26cc engine with minimal use sitting on a shelf. What would you recommend to do with them as far as doing upgrades? New cylinders? Up the CC? Want to make them usable from a power stand point if possible. Thoughts?

If you don't need them , video them running , ebay/forum them and use the cash for good upgrades.

You could always buy big bore 4 bolt long blocks and use the parts off your old motors.

i made my stock 23 dbxl engine into a 29cc...loads better for only 50 odd quid for a gen cy head kit from irc....

Any recommendations for long blocks? Maybe a URL? My curiosity is being curious.

I'm curious to do some motor work, see what kind of difference a change like this would make.

There are a good few vids on Youtube that shows you how to do porting work. Thats a great start for playing with the engines.

Ebay is the place to look.
Different sizes and different prices.
Just make sure you get a 4 bolt.
