- In this video I take Charlies old Ansmann Virus, to try and extract some more power out of the 15 year nitro engine by doing a custom street port. I should mention that the engine has been locked up in the past. Also the fact i have never done this before. I do run some tests to see if I can in fact prove that the port job has improved performance. Watch to see what happens!!
from own experience (because i port my out of spec engines as well), the more 'material' you remove, the more fuel you are going to burn.
of course, this is still very little fuel.. but its going to happen.
still, this is give or take the best diy port job anyone could do at home given they have the tools to do so.
i salute you for your findings!
Dam ...I could tell it was faster on that first pull of the line. Thanks for the vid. And you're right there aren't many videos about I'm glad you put out!
Nice work, 1 year later!. I carved up a old HPI Nitro Start .25 and made it sing much better. Advanced the timing in the crank and channeled the liner, shimmed the head, ect. Drop one more size tighter in carb restriction and it will probably pull wheelies, with a center diff. Tighter carb restriction gives you better low end throttle response, at the sacrifice of a bit of top end. Some of the top end can be brought back with a better pipe. Longer run times as well with a restrictor. The Gimar "Red Putty" heavy modded Team Novarossi's had a aluminum 7mm restriction, on a .28 8 port, with a 9mm overall-throat carb. That modded engine covered both the bases, low end and top end. Gimar modded "Red Putty" anything is a animal motor, that starts right up, first lick with preheat.
Awesome work on that engine. Good to see some comparisons 😊
Thanks man was almost surprised it worked 😂
Great bit of fettling mate 👍🏻 I’ve got an old 1/16 truggy in the shed.. might have to do this with that little ripper
Great job 🎉🎉
Awesome work 🚀🚀
Thanks man
Great work cool video
This is insane LOVE IT 😁
You can hear it and not only does it run smoother but you have less drag. I've seen people completely cut the piston sleeve off.
I did this with a Rossi 45 airplane engine. I also cut about 1mm off the top of the exhaust port. It made that old Scat Cat go like stink on a tuned pipe. It's been a while but I do remember getting almost 21k rpm on the ground with a 9x7 prop.
9x7 is a small prop for a .45. I used to use 9x6 on my .25 that was only a stock standard General purpose Magnum for a trainer 3 channel, rudder, elevator, throttle only. An old Sig Apollo. In the mid 90s. Great memories 😊
good video and nice test
The most significant improvements will be on the Mid to Top end of the RPM. I also find balancing the crankshaft gave me the most improvements from idle and acceleration. You will need a lathe to get it really balanced and to remove any kickback. I would say you did a great job. When I used to race 1/8 Onroad & Offroad back in the early 2000s we had no choice but to port, polish, and balance as even the high-end OS, RB, and Rossi engines were poor performance. Everyone was modding the engines and if you wanted to podium you had no choice but to learn how to be the best at improving engine performance. Especially, with the longer straightaways they had back then. Which is why I enjoyed running the stock class quite a bit. It was racer against racer not car vs car.
Probably, It's the cleaning of the engine that improves the performance, not the porting, The porting will only inflate the nitro consumption. Your exhaust residue will be more (wet) now, with all the unburnt nitro.
If that were true then porting wouldn’t be a performance modification. Naturally porting would increase fuel consumption when you richer the mixture, otherwise the amount of fuel going into the carburetor is the same, ported or not.
That’s literally how more power is made… by increasing the fuel consumption (along with air consumption as well). When you port these they are able to stuff more fuel/air mixture into the cylinder, making more power. Porting DOES increase power
wow,awesome mod and rc
It sounded different on its restart (better) than before, really crisp and quite faster.😊
I agree wad happy with the result
This is a very good video. Boyo !!!
Hi 👋, it might be worth contacting, David Mills Prestwich models, if he is still about, you could of polished the inside port of a crank, and flair the top open, When machining the liner, it is best to hold it in a soft pair of jaws, so you have both hands on the Dremel tool, after running the engine for the first time you get staining marks on the outside of the liner. This is a good indication of where you can actually machine the material why to make better fuel flow. If you make yourself up a timing plate/disc to bolt onto the shaft, and take note of where the piston opens and close the exhaust port, this is something you need to do very very carefully. You can open the exhaust port up only by a few thousand at a time. Without knowing what sort of engine it is, there is ways of cutting away part of the piston at the bottom.,
At the moment, I cannot remember what you need to do, as it has been nearly 50 years since I have race tuned a engine,
I was back in the late 80s, early 90s, are used to race, radio controlled hydros , 3 1/2cc CMB 7 1/2cc OPS 11cc 15cc CMB , AT THE time I was one of the top races, it is a good idea to get several piston, a liner sets and hundreds as well, Suggestion, get yourself a little black book and take notes of what you’re doing and what degrees you are machining things to do, and I suggest keeping one as piston liner as stock,
Good luck, with your project, PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE.
Crazy how a TH-camr, just sees your comment and ignores you. Typical spoilt child of the new generation, I long gave up even entertaining the comments section. Even use AdBlock to make sure I give them nothing back. Best thing we did was learn from others take advice and help out people new to a hobby, these youtubers just want to showcase a video and expect others to look up to them like idols.
Glad we grew up and enjoyed life without a computer :D Life was better.
Peace out dude
Good work 4mph gain is great
Хороший результат).И это с таким старым,изношенным двигателем.Если бы верхние части каналов в гильзе снаружи совпадали с каналами в картере и не было там ступенек,было бы ещё лучше.
New main bearing probably made quite a difference!
It did best to change them before they break 😅
I need to try this lol thanks for the video i like it
Thanks man 🙏🏻
Verry nice
You got more power by cleaning that dirty ass motor.
Probably bro she was nasty 😅
Surprised by the results! Definitely don’t wanna risk doing it myself on my LRP .32 savage 😂 great video!
I think it’s good for engines that have no nice porting your Lrp is probably nicely ported already
I've thought about trying this myself, I've always worried I'd ruin the engine. Definitely worked well for you. Great work 👏
Yeah bro give it a go on an old engine
@@Unogarage I have 2 old Ofna Hyper .21 8 port engines that would be perfect for this treatment.
I might try it out on my 21 hyper engine aswell in my 1/8th pro buggy 😂 see if it works 🔥💨💨
@@elliottpalmer9276 do it mate ! It’s good fun
@@Unogarage I think I’m going too I have a spare hyper 21 engine so I might aswell at least try it out seems a lot more aggressive off the line 💯💨💨
Have to change the crank timing as well. Both work together. All my 2stroke racebikes have there ports cut/shaved, including intake and exhaust port as well as cylender ports. Makes a big difference. Even if nothing else is done. U will see a difference
Yeah man, I didn’t really have the skills for that not going to lie I just winged it
This all seems very similar to a wankel, how do you adjust the crank timing?
You cut the intake on the milled edge just smooth the cut down in with a moto tool
Perfect
not bad at all you didnt even drill out the center of the crank and silicone fill it even more bottom end pick up and dill out the fly wheel
The difference was it was lean on the first 3. And either cold or rich for the last 3.
Lean it more!
Ah oui il prend plus de tours et plus vite 👍👍
I'm sure that's my old virus.
Oh really !
@@Unogarage I could possibly be wrong, but I sold a virus to a criminal mastermind who is trying g to take over the world 😂
JUST KIDDING, but I did sell a virus last year, with that exact pipe and tank on it. Wheels and wing are a different colour now. Here's a fun fact, that engine is a force, hpi, hobao, mach engine that uses a standard plug. You CAN change the button to a turbo plug button and get even more speed out of it. That pipe is off a force .30 engine if its the one I sold.
Chique carro 😊
Any thoughts about porting the exhaust head outlet & then the exhaust pipe face where it bolts to the head 🤔
The trouble is bro if you take too much material it’ll open the port when the piston reaches tdc and that’s no good for power.
Were did you get that gps for the car bluetooth to your phone
Make it a tad richer up top. And the two stage idle will come back in. Watch JQ video on two stage
I’ve seen that vid probably should re watch it brush up my tunning abit
@UNO Garage fuel seals the bearings. Without smoke, you have no seal. I've only just started. I'm impressed with the porting, which was good. I guess if you got slightly smaller stones, you would be learning a old talent.
Rex from rbmods he passed away. But has videos on how to figure out timing
I got the same car in the loft
Di quale motore si tratta? Dove è stato fabbricato?
You should have open the in take on the crank
By making it close later I assume. Or do you mean make it larger from front to back, without changing the actual timing
J'ai eu un T2M pirate évolution un monstre
For better results change timing of crraknshaft
and how does one change the timing? remove a head shim?
Get a new header and pipe with springs...those rubber couplers tend to rob horsepower
And your low speed needle is a bit lean
Great vid mate. I've pmd your Instagram account
