MHR Team Minarelli cylinder height
- Thread starter roost
- Start date
On minarelli engines you don't need a 85mm cranshaft @ MHR Team.
Only the MHR cross needs a 85mm.
The difference between 85 en 80 cylinders is the piston pin.
@ 85mm cylinders the piston pins place is 5mm higher.
Correct me i've i'm wrong. :#
Yes, you are right!

Also if you want to use an 85mm crank over a 80mm on a minarelli, all you need is a spacer @ 5mm. Both 80/85 have pro's/con's over them. Either that or you can use a cross piston with the team II cyl then you wouldn't need a spacer =)

OVERREV TUNING
there are benefits using a longer conrod especially on a high revving engine, less piston side thrust = less wear on the piston, ring wear would also be reduced but a 5mm spacer is a must if you don't have pistons with shorter compression height but i also find that to be an advantage (using a spacer).

Yeah they dont produce them anymore, a friend got hold of one here in spain, but it seemed that that was hard enough to find!
