pressed on the Enuma ek29h master link this may not apply to a race engine. Edit: in fact it doesn't apply and make sure you peen the link.

Switches to 130 jets and we are running lean. Good news revved to 10k instantly and is using more fuel. We will fix the cam chain (have another link) any suggestions?

why is that connector link bent ? press fit will be fine for race motor there is really zero loads trying to push the link apart while running

when we engaged the cam chain tensioner I pressed the tensioner bar down further and locked it in place.

i was curious why the link was bent, i wouldn,t go over tight on the chain just snug

We blew all kinds of oil out the air breather that is a good thing...ventilation is on it way.

Flappy 219 chain

So while engine braking it stretched our chain and put undo force on it?

[Texasstar]

so the honda cam chain tensioner is there just to control the flap and if the chain is too tight the tensioner will act as a lever against the chain?

I wonder if the steel tensioner wheel had anything to do with it?

probably...The kart guys use a DID gold on gold 219 rivet and they are pushing twice the hp we are. If we are breaking stuff that may be a good thing or a bad. I would rev to 10k and then engine brake rev to 8k and engine brake rev to 9 k and engine brake rev it made it about a mile then broke.'Took it up to 310ish on the temp gage. Was a blast to ride! Running lean you could feel it was fuel starved...stutter... at high rpm...needs the 26mm carbs.
