The highest score with 2fast over here is 27,4 BHP @ tovami.
The new malossi kits are verry interesting

timing is 192/132
I didn`t calculate it. I have the timings from the malossi site
I think the combustion head wil also pentrate into the cylinder, but their is nothing that i can find about it on the website
in the pics whit the crank i spot a exhaust. on te board next to it says NEW.
anyone a beter pic of the exhaust?
Anyone notice how low the cylinder skirt is? It's not only to
the base, but further into the ports themselves. Looks like
some of the inner wall of the transfers, at the bottom, is missing.

i see what you are pointing at, looks to me they still used the original mold for the 70cc 7T only they machined it with a different parameters for a 44mm stroke, they made the deck height taller for the longer stroke & conrod.
i see no problems with the skirt running short, it might even be beneficial for gas flow to the tunnels.
It's started me wondering if you could do away with the inner
wall of the boost port altogether... On a regular cylider (apologies
for straying from the subject), with the 2 windows on the piston,
replace the piston with one that has no holes, remove the
inner wall completely (making the boost port go all the way down
to the cylinder base), and the piston side would be the inner wall
of the boost port. The inner wall of a port duct should be curved,
but on a lot of cylinders the boost port is pointing up anyway,
so maybe the curved inner wall is not so important.
There are actually many pocketbikes that are done this way. Many lawncare 2 strokes don't even have a "wall" or "floor", but those are very very different from the engines we have. I have seen a few scooter cylinders that have been modified the way you describe though, I just can't remember where. A. Graham Bell's book suggests that this style of boost port aides piston cooling. As long as the roof angle is where you want it, the floor angle (or it's existence period) is probably not going to be as important as the rest of it.
Just my two off-topic cents.
