OS LA 46 MODS FOR A BETTER STUNT RUN
|
| Here is a stock head |
|
| Here is the modified head. Combustion chamber is opened up and the head is lowered down. |
|
| Here is a stock crankshaft (rear and side view). |
|
| Here is the modified crank with a tungsten insert and removed material in front of crank pin. |
|
| Here is a stock LA 46 Piston & Liner |
|
| Liner intake ports raised to 15 deg of the exhaust port and piston is notched for better fuel flow. |
|
| Look for the brass color inside the exhaust port. That is where the intake ports were modified. |
|
| Note there is no longer a border around the O.S. on the head. The head was opened and lower. |
FOX 35 HIGH ZOOT CRANK SHAFT
|
| An old crank on the left, 40th anniversary crank in the middle and Hi-Zoot on the right |
|
| Side by side shot at the Hi-Zoot crank and the old style crank |
|
| The Hi-Zoot crank is larger in dia. So you have to lap the Crank to the engine case |
Here are a few of us having fun out at Fentress last year.
