Any idea when assembly of the power plant will begin and will you share the process with us?? What horsepower numbers are you anticipating.?? Yeah, I've got questions. Lol. Wise choice on using stock Busa rods. It helps keep cost down due to wide availability of both used, inexpensive parts and brand new rods
Frank, I am peddling as fast as I can. This is all bleeding edge stuff for me, so it's hard to timeline on a calendar.
I am taking the cranks over to Austin to cut the primary and HyVo gear teeth after the first of the year.
They then go back to California for final grinding and Ion Nitriding.
Transmissions are essentially finished except for the primary drive gear that I wanted to wait on the crank gears to insure proper backlash. Got to work out the air shifter control.
Still machining on the cases, cylinders, and heads. DOHC frames are already fitted for the SOHC engines but still need a little work on the rear suspension.
Was planning on documenting the first assembly to some extent. Horsepower? The computer calculated potential is overwhelming for my pea brain. Proof is in the pudding.
Yep, the Hayabusa rods were a no brainer for multiple reasons.
