    I have never seen a selection of tool-heads and die bits like that.
    Foredom?? You have THOUSANDS tied up in them.
    It appears to me the Van Norman deck is rough... obvious mill marks...
    Is that something to worry over?
    What honing machine is that?
    How elegant!
    Great video, and thanks!!!

      The cylinder head is sealed with orings. There isn't a gasket. So the sealing surface on these is the bottom of the oring grooves, not the deck.
      So the surface finish on these on the deck doesn't affect anything. That being said is was a 16 ra finish which is still a great finish. U
      Its hard to tell surface finish in a picture or video Especially when the cylinder has cast iron and aluminum that you're cutting at the same time because the cast iron will leave rubber marks on the aluminum . The hone I have is a van norman cylinder hone, and yes, I have thousands In porting tools! Thanks for watching and Commenting

I do plan on having someone with the correct tooling check out the cylinder wall surfaces before purchasing parts. What are the pros and cons of Cast vs Forge, in this application. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    I have a 2008 Polaris 800, it still has not needed re-plating , low hours for it's year though. Do you think operating a snowmobile in cold weather would cause more piston wear from the two different heat expansion rates when a cast sleeve is installed? Also I have a 97 KX500 with a new sleeve in the cylinder, the cross hatching is already worn almost smooth, just around the exhaust port. Could this be from the sleeve being a tighter fit in the bottom, or just from all the people that want to ride it and don't let it warm up? It still runs good and has strong compression.
    Would you suggest I just ride it or should I pull the cylinder and hone that nickel sized smooth spot and drill a few small oil holes in the piston skirt ?
    This was a very good video I thought, I do not see why plating costs more, that was quite a bit of work involved.

    • @EricksonMachinePerformance
      @EricksonMachinePerformance  3 года назад +1

      If the 500 has good compression keep riding it. The cross hatch could have been wrong grit or a few other things . It won't affect the motor to bad. As the the iron liner, plating is harder BUT iron expands more evenly. So they both have there trade offs. Personally I prefer iron liners over plating. But both are great and both will last a LONG time

    • @EricksonMachinePerformance

    @relax261085 3 года назад

    Great video!!
    What you would say are the disadvantages of the cast iron sleeve in comparison with the nikasil? Can an engine blow by that alteration? Or cause the engine to heat? I have this problem with my xr650r and everybody says its because its sleeved instead of nikasil...it heats, blow the head gasket and eventually the piston stick with the cylinder. Maybe could be a bad job sleeve? one thing i noticed is that the sleeve is maybe too fat around 8mm if that helps. Any advise is welcome!

    • @EricksonMachinePerformance
      @EricksonMachinePerformance  3 года назад +2

      On 2 strokes personally I don't see disadvantages. Technically people talk about heat dissipation but the liner so thin in the rest of the cylinder so large I've never seen that to actually be in issue. The other thing is technically plating harder BUT the aluminum is softer so many times it peals the plating.. when machined correctly there aren't issues with leaks. But if done incorrectly there be issues ( but that's basically any machine work)

    Those sleeves are not designed to be run without an ear behind them. The sleeve's ODs are 3.5 inches. That translates to 88.9mm. The bore is 85mm, which means the sleeve is 1.95mm thick on each side. I have a foreboding that the brittle and thin sleeve on the MAG side is going to break off and make a big mess, and all your hard work will be ruined. Those Polaris 800s have lots of problems with the pistons being too short in the first place, so that, combined with not having a strong cylinder ear to run against, and the sleeve being machined with right angles near the boost port intake, is going to be a problem much faster. I'd really recommend getting a scored up cylinder, removing these sleeves, boring that cylinder, installing these sleeves in it, honing it, and combining that with any common durability kit with taller pistons, base spacer, and longer base bolts. But I could be wrong, and I hope I am, honestly.

    • @EricksonMachinePerformance
      @EricksonMachinePerformance  4 года назад +1

      Some people Run with the aluminum ears removed without issue. .055" thick is enough to support WITHOUT aluminum to support it.. That being said 1 small section missing will not hurt ANYTHING. I have 20 years of building performance 2 strokes. This sleeve is stronger then the aluminum EVER was. I have done a bunch over the years and have NEVER had an issue with a sleeved jug either way. Thin aluminum offers very little support compared to a quality iron liner. Thanks for the comment

      I agree with you and Rich. Polaris had some big issues as the previous poster mentioned but it was eventually traced back to the Pistons suffering severe shrinkage and then making a mess. Most of it was determined later on to be the pistons, not a cylinder problem. Something to do with the high silicone content.
