  1. + the 'M' carbs (40mm) are a PITA to set up unless induction is absolutely stock! A repair will be likely cheaper than a replacement head. Using a Blandit engine in a GSXR will be a disappointment with its lower output!

  2. I'm struggling here! A 044 is not a small pump (and its amp draw may give your electrics concerns!) and it seems to be fitted within a cylinder with nicely machined ends that all achieve nothing except make it bigger - at a guess, its nearly 100mm dia and 250+mm long? A 044 pump will usually support 500hp - do you need that much?

  3. Doesn't make a great difference - it's just an endless loop of wire inside some plastic with connections at either end!

    It's more likely a problem with the wiring between the trigger and the spark box or between the spark box and the coils, if the coils are wired to power etc.

    in the remote chance it is just a weak scavenge pump issue has anyone tried one of these instead of the Facet type ??

    Wouldn't use one of them for that purpose - Intermediate duty cycle means it would likely overheat or seize if used continuously!

    . While low timing is safer for cnock it can increase exhaust temps significantly which can then cause other problems. So usually I have used some middle ground figure.

    Just thinking the same - retarded ignition on high boost starts the burn later, which could still be burning into the exhaust phase so overheating valves and nibbling turbo turbine blades. You won't see it on the output but will eventually in reliability!

    Anyone knows where to find drawings or schemes of the oil coolant passways and pressures?

    Schematics is easy - see below, but pressures is tricky - pressure at main gallery is quoted by suzuki but not at every 'point of use'!

  7. What is your setup and the application you are intending - why using such a large pump? If you do need that pump then a return back to the tank would be advised or you'll need a better regulator - Malpassi for example!

    My neutral switch has 6 wires into white connector block and a single wire,all others ive looked at so far have 5 and a single wire :/

    Not trying to sound smart but that's because 1100's have 5 gears and 750's have 6! And apparently there is a size difference but I can't confirm as never seen the two side by side. Any o ring that correctly fits the o/d of the switch will work.

    Where can you get JE pistons including boarding from for £450 ?

    I dunno - I'm facking guessing hence the ??? after everything! Last one's I got were £300 inc boring..............if i'm out of touch - flame me if you want!

    It's been done combined with a dot head. A cheap 1216. Can't remember the details. Not as good results as a 'proper' kit due to the compression though. But alot cheaper!

    Is it really that much cheaper? JE hi comp pistons - £450 inc boring? Against  s/hand Busa pistons £100 + boring £60? + Barrel surfacing £60? + DOT head £150? - total = £370 and lightly to be sub 11:1 CR? Add in a new set of rings (not essential but why not with fresh bore) £80? and costs are comparable.

    It means without a fuel pump, i ran my kwaksuki like this with great results.

    I also installed the biggest floatseat and needle available

    It made 230 bhp at the wheel and did not run lean on wot so good enough for me 

    Used both pumped and non pumped with my Kawazuki - tank was fitted with twin non vac. Kwak taps - plenty flow into an S&S Shorty.

    Didn't much like the Facet pump - only used it to race.

  12. No you can't as that just forms a closed system! Any crankcase compression wouldn't vent so would lead to oil leaks and potential blown gaskets. Always take breathers to open air via a filter or a catch can as they will breath vapours / oil mist.

    You are a star thankyou.You don't have the the part numbers with the microfiche? :D

    Part # 09280 - 36001

    I suppose you're gonna ask me to pay for it next  LOL!

  14. Nowt wrong with Dyna S - only 4 wires and it's good to go. Good fit with the old ET engine as the ATU is required and that has the deep cover ...... EFE guys have to find those bits to use an 'S'. No performance advantage but you do lose the near 40yr old electronics!

  15. I understand the conversion for your disability but some of the relative lever angles could be improved and there are a lot of joints that introduce slack / backlash so 'delicacy' in gear selection could be problematical. My first thought when you described your problem was use an old C90 type 'heel and toe' type shifter - very direct and don't have to move your foot at all - just rock it, toe down  or heel down for gear selection?

    But the GSX clutch is a 'bit agricultural' as regard tolerances and will appear sloppy / loose / worn when its fine with no problems. The hubs and baskets do suffer with the 'ridging' noted above, both being aluminium doesn't help together with steel of the plates. They can be filed out to smooth off but its a temporary fix - the symptoms will usually return, replacement is ultimately the required fix! Flat steels essential - grinding fairly extreme for a road bike - just make sure none are warped. Assume you are using OEM Suzuki fibres - others can be problematical, proven many times via this site and racing community.

  16. Yes those valves can be used - they need to go in the collector to get maximum draw and with an exhaust having no back pressure - Ken Cooper used on his drag bikes for years! They ain't called anti backfire valves for no reason - an open line to the crankcase with highly volatile air / oil vapours from the exhaust could blow the crankcase apart quite spectacularly! And as the vapours do contain oil, you'll have a constant blue haze behind you!

    That's the 2nd pic. The tank rests on the 90s & sits above by at least 4 inches

    Ah - see that now a altered the pic brightness! Yes - forged 90's would be lots lower. A M8 used straight head fittings with 180 degree fittings which were orientated at about 45 degrees and the hoses were virtually sitting on the cam cover - doesn't help does it......LOL!

    Is a thicker head gasket needed even for low boost? 

    Thicker base gasket you need to lower the compresion ratio.

    Both will obtain the same objective - but the thick head gasket will be more prone to failure due to exposure!

    Modern TF Nitro engines often run a different C/R on some pairs of cylinders....O.o  

    Reminds me of a story about a very well known bike racer who got to end of the year having blown most of his shit up and couldn't afford new, so bored a set of barrels with one cylinder @ 1327 size, 0ne @ 1550 size and two @ 1427 size - vibrated a bit but held together for the whole meeting! With desperation anything is possible!
