Nice work! I used to use a diamond imprgnated compound from work on my snowmobiles and jetskis. Also used it on RC cars. It was used for blending inside diameter of carbide and tool steel dies after pressing them together. Ours come in 3 colors for grit. Used it on the small white dremel pads. Ports looked like chrome.

Thanks for re-uploading (old version of this had those no-video moments at key times, couldn't tell if it was you playing games or just an error lol!), am new to this and had been trying all kinds of attachments, rubbing compounds etc but cannot get past a "perfectly-smooth hazy-mirror....cannot wait til I have a top-end opened again so I can try again after having seen this, thanks again!! Love the terminology btw ("2nd cut"), I see it the same in my mind but putting words to things helps so much more, doing "rounds" of successively finer/smoother sanding... I found, at first, I was going and ruining cylinders because I'd wait til the grinding was like 95% done before beginning teh smoothnig (and then, chasing defects for smoothness, I'd end up w/ a larger port than desired) so now once I'm around 75-85% I begin going for smooth, start using those sanding barrels on the dremel instead of the burrs, in-preparation for the finer stuff. Glad you mentioned steel wool, meant to try that last time & forgot, it's in my notes now ;) JB in intakes is very neat where applicable, reliable easy and lets you 'choose' for instance on big bore 660 builds it's required (as they send them w/ skirts that're 73thou short, intake timing is nonsense "out of box"), gonna be trying a 395 piston (plus its con.rod bearing, so it fits the 660) instead but otherwise you need JB in that case, I came to like it (I had to do 3 of those jugs to get 1 that I liked, anyway I came to like that I could make the intake floor even higher than I'd initially wanted (while widening it) on a later cylinder, usually you can't choose to reduce your intake timing (though besides some instances w/ 660's I've never heard of desire to :P )

I always say find what works for you if you can use some of my methods and other ideas then make it your own... also metal polish will give you a nicer finish... this old timer that showed me how to port on dirt bikes told me that metal polish is bad for cylinder linings so i have it in my head but I don't think it really hurts it

you're correct about the metal dust: fine aluminum particles are coming off and oxidizing, making alumina which is a common abrasive. I think the scotchbrite pads are infused with alumina to begin with.

We actually use the same process with polishing equalizing ports on steam turbines with a minor difference. May be worth looking at just to see how it does…. You can get rods with a nut on the end, so we will get Scotch brite discs that have petals cut out so they collapse easily. We will also get them bigger than the hole so when they are spinning the individual petals are forced into the side. We used WD40 or Kroil also… we will also go with multiple grits of scotch brite . Doing this gives a very uniform finish and hits the edges really well. And you can tell where you are at with polishing by the feel of the rotary tool as you run it through. The way you do it works well, but I think the method I described works a little faster and is dead uniform on the polish with a little less difficulty in managing pressure and location of the arbor

When you can stick a straight edge in there and cant find any rock in the port then it's flat but that doesn't mean it's blow pattern is correct. Get two 10 inch long small steel rods, put them in the port sitting flat against the sides and note the angles the rods are pointing out of the cylinder. Blow pattern should always be considered before any grinding is done.

@Finksta951 Жыл бұрын

Have you tried Cratex bits. They also make generic versions that are way cheaper I think a pack of 50 is like 10 bucks, they are a rubber abrasive that you can get a mirror polish instantly. It almost takes off material faster on rougher surfaces then slows down on polished surfaces I think they are designed that way to keep you from hoggin out material on accident. The bits are awesome because you can take a metal file preferably one you don't like and you can shape them to get into any hard to reach spaces. The ones I get are varying sizes of cilinders with quite a bit of bit to work with,. I would use them back when I worked in the shop we did a lot of heavy duty diesels and a lot of hot rod motors. Doing any kind of head work they were second to none to get any metal to a mirror shine in 0 seconds flat.. Just be warned tho like any other abrasive you can go to far with these so you have to be careful on your super critical tolerance areas.. Just a suggestion I like what you did with the scotch brite. It gets expensive buying the little wheel forms especially if there is any sharp edges for you to explode them on.

That sludge is what we call, the secret sauce. So i use heavy 3in1 oil and a clean fresh tungsten carbide cutter, and port with a puddle of the gray goop build up all over the bit. What i have found is that this leaves the port walls "lubricated" after washing out with soap and water and blow amd air dry. You feel the port and it feels oily slick. I tend to see little to no carbon buildup in my exhaust ports.

Very interesting video, have you ever experimented how a chainsaw works with a modified piston, i mean in such a way that you take a iron hand file..and file down on top of the piston... Like angles, hard to explain but we used to do it on mopeds here back in the old days and it "" should"" work since it's a 2 stroke machine!?, . It's a challenge to explain this in English! Hope you understand 😂 Ofc if the piston has a flat surface on top it can be difficult.

It would definitely make for a very polished and shiny surface but you can’t take a 300 or 500 grit surface up to polish… you need to go up in steps… 500/800/1000 that’s where this little technique really shine’s… it’s using the old material to sand the surface facing… you are dumping from 200 or 320 up to around 800-1000 in the one step… you could probably use ZAM polish… it’s mostly used in sterling silver and torquiest jewelry to go one more step smoother from where he ends up at… but at some point right in this area it’s not really going to be any more beneficial… it’s just a great little cheat to save a lot of time

@johnscustomsaws 2 жыл бұрын

Thats awesome man... the WD-40 trick is an old school method and the guy that showed it to me said that some metal polishes can be hard on the cylinder lining so I have always been nervous to use it ... probably a non-issue but he was a super smart dude and 2 stroke wizard... as far as the adjustable NOS yes that would be awesome... especially since the NOS is not consistent... when the bottle is full it is definitely more dense and towards the end its very thin... it is tough to control with the big valve on the bottle but a secondary valve is a really good idea man... I might try that 💯

@DaveyBlue32 2 жыл бұрын

If you use a metal polish you should wipe down the bore with a clean towel and acetone or something as a regular dish or hand soap will not cut the waxes… they are chemically designed to break down an oil molecule not necessary a wax molecule… and as you know cleanliness is next to godliness where it comes to internal engine surface’s… my uncle had a metal fuel filter in between the tank and right where it came up into the engine bay… like a little charge regulator… it wasn’t about filtering the gas it was something about that line into the more voluminous container and then back into the line and then threw the intake… I think it actually acted as a mix device or a conditioner… if you are really into it… run an additional air line into your filter….or accumulator…and get a regular cylinder of compressed air… a dive tank… and cut your nitrous hit with the compressed air… You will actually be getting a boost from nothing but air…😉👍

@@johnscustomsaws yeah man…with the nitrous not having any lubrication properties or ability you are needing to compensate for it’s heat with your fuel mixture… wondering if you did a mix valve and used a small propane bottle and mixed your nitrous hit with the propane before the cylinder if you wouldn’t be way ahead of the game… 16:1 with super techniplate…in the dive tank world… we use a higher pressure tank and you can mix your gases in your dive tanks off of your higher pressure master tanks… like when you are working extra deep and are breathing nitrox … and if really deep then helium in the heliox like at 900 feet…. But my thinking is that an empty nitrous bottle could be prefilled with propane just with the little valve that lets you flip a 20lb er and fill your small propane tanks… then it could be topped off with nitrous??? If you were running a nitromethane blend at 16:1 with techniplate that nitrous with some propane for lube might be a viable hit??? Wondering off the cuff if a little bit of diesel or kerosene or aviation fuel would add lubrication properties that are needed??? This might be a neat area to research??? at 10-(15)-20% of the mix that really high octane would. Wondering about the snowmobile drag racing scene boy’s… I know that they are all turbocharged but I’m sure there’s been some playing with fuel bleeding and nitrous setup’s…. That nitrous bottle you have with propane and high pressure air would be a pretty sweet hit for a chainsaw and it’s not that crazy heat without any lube factors???? It’s definitely some fun shit!!! When I first saw the video of you and that saw that catches fire in your hands as you are trying to blast it out on a nitrous shot!!! I knew you were right up my alley!!!
