#1 Advice on cam chain
07-06-2013, 02:10 PM
Right, Myself and someone else have attempted a big bore kit on my engine but it has had to be raised as the cb150 kit is slightly off and the piston hits the valves, I made a custom gasket to clear this, but the cam chain was under some tension. Having built the engine I went to test it, only to discover after 6min of running the chain snapped!
Annoyed to say the least but I thought it would happen, any idea's what can be done as the chain is being stretched by nearly 3mm each side which is a total stretch of 6mm to the chain in an oval shape.
As I don't think much more can really be done and the temptation of putting the whole engine in the bin has become beyond tempting.Lexmoto XTR-S 156FMI (156cc big bore) - 163FML Cams (+1mm lift) - Foam Filter - Sports Exhaust - 17T Sprocket - 110 Main Jet - PZ30 Carb - Aprillia RS Ignition Coil - Casoli CDI
