    I'm doing this build right now as I speak, and man this clearancing SUX! The bottom of the cylinder is where I'm having the worst time. I don't know how far up in there I can go. I guess it doesn't matter the rod just has to clear. Thanks for the video, it helps tremendously with my confidence with this clearancing!

      @chrisare187Racing you're welcome! I'm just an average guy with a little bit of mechanical knowledge. If someone else can do something, I believe I can accomplish it as well. We get knocked down by others enough throughout our lives, I like to be the guy that won't let people down.

      It helps get the honey back down into the pot when running vents and redistribute pressure. I run vented side covers because when you plug the governor hole on top of the block, you are essentially removing the factory vent....the governor arm is not sealed from the factory, sometimes on stock engines you find oil/dirt on tops of the block, that oil is being carried by the air pressure that escapes around the governor shaft.

      You don't want to drill that hole out it is sized to fill that center chamber with oil and flood over to lude the cam tappits and excess oil will drain back to the sump if you drill it the cam tappits might not get enough oil. There was some thought put in that hole size!!!

    I am in the middle of building the same 224 engine. Just did the internal shaving clearancing and I also have a 275 cam I'll use for now while I wait for the 320 Cam I just ordered to arrive in the mail. I got the Go Power Sports Stage 4 Race Head I'm slapping on it too. .650 Venturi Stock appearing Race carb. 20'' tires. 4 Stage open header pipe. Tork-zilla Super 30 Series driver paired with a 7'' driven. I can't wait to feel the power this baby puts out. How many Horse Power if you had to guess do you think yours is putting out now? About? Then I can rough guesstimate what mine is putting out.

    Looks like they did a nice job with the three areas of concern on the 224 specific cams making it much easier for the builder.
    They have a lot of low end torque. For me, my 196 bike is just as fun and easier to ride than the 224 bike. I don't have to be as careful with the throttle. 196 power works well for how I ride.
    I didn't like the 224 blower housing and long starter cup so I used the Hisun 196 parts.

    • @fatbuddycat
      @fatbuddycat  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I might be changing that on mine as well! It depends which carb I end up running and if i use a linkage. I've never gone over a 265 cam, we are likely gonna take it even further than that and really do some stuff I've never done before!!

    • @fatbuddycat
      @fatbuddycat  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The cams feel good. I ordered both a cl2 for 196 and a 224. It's really cool to see the difference between them, I'll probably make a short video of those.

    • @Deucealive75
      @Deucealive75 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@fatbuddycat That should be very cool. The nice thing about the CL cams is you can get your stock springs back into action. Want 7K RPM? Then get a CL4. Want a basic 5800 RPM and under build? Then get the CL1 original.
      I had one builder telling me about all the 265 and under cams he tested. Most of his comments were negative and called the 252 cam I used "lazy". He's an Isky cam guy. But he said of all the cams he tested he was most impressed by the CL series cams.
      A few months ago I did a basic build on a Hisun 196. That one got a Superman 265 cam from Dover power.
