Bb395

[parrisw]

Well, its time for another saw. This 395 was actually the very fist saw I ported, it has a 2101 piston, with not too fabulous port work, well its actually not that bad, I never degree'd this saw, so the #s are very conservative, just check it today when I pulled it down. Was just going to redo this cylinder but it had a little funky wear. So I've had this BB kit sitting here for like almost 2 years maybe? It was slated for another 395 in a box that I have, but will have to find another cylinder for that saw.

So here are the stock BB numbers.

EX 101* ATDC
TANS 117* ATDC
INT 75* FTDC
SQUISH .044"

Cut the head off.

Punch it out.

Slap a Holley on it and let's see what she'll do!

LOL. naa. Maybe some day I'll try that gig.

How about bore it out, and stroke the crank. Wonder if you could make a 120cc 395?

A Holley 750 double pumper... we'd love to see that four to one adapter! But how about a mikuni from a dirt bike. And I was wondering how a stroker would even fit inside of the existing case.

Fits easy in the case, its the same crank that's had the pin modified.

A 395 was the first saw that you ported.
You went for the gusto right away.
Nice setup on the lathe.

Yup! LOL. It was the most plentiful saw I had access to at the time. Since then I think I've had 4 395's and 3 394's.

Heres to the 395's. Did I ever mention I love mine

Me three!!

 

[parrisw]

Yes, I still love them, just not like I used to, when I found what a 372 will do, the 395's didn't get used near as much. They are fun though.

Uhh oh, Will's got the grinder out again... :msp_ohmy:

ha! Not yet, just got the lathe going on it now. Still have to cut the base, then on to the grinding. Feeling under the weather today, work tomorrow, arrrggg, I hate colds!!!

Ehh... Your 395 is ok, I guess, if you dont mind listening to the piston slapping.

lol,

If I were him, Id pull it down and check it out. Sounded like a marble or something bouncing around in the cylinder.

Oh, maybe just hitting the squish band, no biggie.

Ya, its bound to happen.

You mean chimped out... :hmm3grin2orange:

 

[srcarr52]

It could be detonation since it looks like it doesn't have a combustion chamber any more.

Have you ever read anything on squish velocity? Really with that large squish band you may be looking at flame travel issues and possible detonation from to high of a squish velocity.

How much did you cut out? 0.1"?
