I saw this posted in the classifieds on SD. I had heard of these before but never actually saw the kit. Have any of you seen these or better installed one and used it? 62mm cylinder with piston water cooled. all gaskets, waterpump, hoses, radiator, 8mm stroker crank, cylinder spacer. all new all taiwan made not china. plus I'll throw in a 64mm piston so you can bump to 212cc (need to machine bore)

Well, I'm not trying to sell this, I was wondering if anybody had any experience with it or knew more than I do about it.
he is asking $800. and it is really easy to find on SD in the classified area.

Looks like the guy is trying to sell it all over the place.

$800 for an unproven headache. That's how I read it. I rather buy 3 GY6 engines and just use them as they burn up. It is always good to have options though. Glad someone is making this kit.
I'm still waiting on a reasonably priced EFI kit for the GY6. Someone could make a lot of money with that.

looking closely at the pictures you can see that the cylinder sleeve is about half thickness at the places the holes are for the studs to go through, makes me wonder how that will take the heat and stress, might even expand a little there and the cylinder could go out of round giving a big hole for oil and compression to go through, might not though. This kit needs some serious testing.

This kit needs some serious testing. I looks like the 1/2 thickness is just in the flange, not the entire cylinder liner. I still agree that someone else should test it before any of us do though.
