Lectron s Bored out?

[Guest]

Anyone ever bore out they're Lectron 40 s ? Thanx Mike

Yes, you can go to 42.5 without issue. You would just be better off Power Jetting them or buying 44s if you are doing a 1500 or bigger.

yeah wonderd about that, if I bought 44 s perhaps then bore them out. I am thinking (besided expensive) 48 s may be bit too large, if 44 s open up also 2.5 46.5 s may be just right for a 1500 plus engine Thanx Ray Mike

Power jetted 44s will work VERY well on a 1570 so I can't see a need to go bigger if you aren't running a Pro Stock or Pro Mod motor.

Hey Ray hows that Epoxy work inside a Carb?? Is it super fuel proof??? Thanx Mike

The Splash Zone epoxy, by Z Spar is what I use & has been no issue with gasoline.

I run 40's on my 1500, i should put 44's but i don't want to but any was i have a whole new top end waiting in the wings and will prob retire teh 1500 befor long. If i were to bore the 40's what's involved with that process? or is it as simple as it sounds?

Hey Phil the madness continues!!!

[Urban spaceman]

It's madness everywhere mike. Now ... how to bore lectrons? or should i leave em alone and just pile more nitrous in...

Phil most bang for the Buck, bore them out like to 42 mm .! , i think epoxy may be required where it breaks through AND pour the Nitrous to it. Keep eye on the crank runout, Indicate the ends occasionally for T.I.R. But I bet roger did your crank properly. We have trouble getting good work here. Are you going to run a 200 or 250 shot? That ought to get er in the low 7s maybe hi 6? But...may blow the f.... up in a spectacular fashion, Kevlar underpants perhaps!!!Ha HA But it will run strong as it has in the past with even more oomph. I think you could benefit from 46 mms maybe smaller 44 s ,44 s seem cheaper buy them and bore to 45 or 45.5 range then pour the NOS to uit, Take care buddy I been making some crazy stuff in the machine shop, Still working also ha ha No more neutrino dar matter research though!! Now tool room machinist fixture jig and stuff machinist , Lots of fun, Take care when you coming for a visit? Mike
