Custom Milled Reed Spacers

[snafu]

sounds good but where do u actually put this spacer?

[RD RACING]

the spacer goes between the crancase and the reed block.

[R1pocket]

any chance you could put a picof one up?

[RD RACING]

i could but just think of the size of your reed block gasket which is about 0.05mm thick = 1/2 mm. the spacer is the same shape but 6mm thick and the colour is white.

what are they made from
somthing heatproof i take it ?

What thickness reed spacer is good to use on a fibre glass reed. And if I get a spacer with a fibre glass reed do I take out the reed restrictor?

i have found the 6 mm spacer is quite suitable for cag engines, when using single stage glass reeds i would only recommend the removal of the restrictor if the reeds are good quality, not the $8 specials like on ebay. running the tripple stage reeds is the safest way without restrictors and the use of the spacer block.

I will send $10 for 6mm reed spacer on monday RD.

so if i got fibreglass reeds for a watercooled off ebay would the 6mm one be fine for that and i take off the restrictor,(quite confused atm)

[100% hard core]

arn't you reducing crank pressure by spacing out the reeds? less crank pressure less compression?
and if you were to get better results with the spacer wouldn't they manufactures set that into the bottom end when they are making the crank case?
