[Album niet gevonden]It has been a while since my last update. In the meantime I have done lots of things which I will show you step by step. First of all, I’ve been working  a lot on the engine. As shown earlier on I’m using a 80cc zundapp casing also known as the engine type “314”. This is a perfect casing for my project. However I have to do some work to let it fit a 50 cc derbi cylinder which I will be using. The reason I use this cylinder is because it is a very common cylinder, and I know there is a lot of potential hidden in these cylinders. Up to 24 Hp is already achieved with these cylinders.

Right now i’ve designed a very clever system to make the bore in the crank casing smaller and bringing the cylinder to the right height. Therefore I’ve drawn the complete casing in Solidworks, this way I can try some modifications without ruining the real casings. I’m a big fan of 3D printing, and the opportunities it gives you with prototyping. I would love to print some 3D parts, to fit them on the real engine, but unfortunately I do not have the resources  to do that. Maybe in the future I will! for know, let’s drop some specifications of the engine after the modifications:
