Review on CDHPOWER New Cylinder Body Motorized by Michael Powell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Stable and well-made replacement cylinder.

I bought an engine kit a few months ago and forgot to add enough oil to the fuel mixture while learning. Probably less than half the equivalent amount! My engine quickly lost power and upon inspection I found that the galvanized coating on the inner skin was badly worn. I am very happy with this replacement so far. It arrived quickly and in perfectly clean condition. Great workmanship and no ugly burrs or scratches like my original. Update: After a few months of use, I ran into some issues with the spark advance. Most likely my compression is too high on this race head. I had to rebuild the top a couple of times to replace the damaged piston rings and I was surprised that the plating inside the cylinder was pretty much intact even though the piston was badly damaged.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Hard to say
