Port Matching Question

[mewbie]

Hi, anyone here could give me an opinion with my project.

Basically did a portmatch to my cylinder kit and I was kinda worried about this part here being too thin. Would this possibly cause a leak or is it ok to run this.

Thanks a

I dont have a lot of experience with 2 stroke, but is it the transfer port for the intake, so I think it is acceptable

If you not like it, you can use some liquid metal (2 component) to fill up the gap

Yes its a two stroke, and yes it is the transfers on the case. I'll maybe try to put some epoxy onto it to thicken the sealing surface.

I guess im a bit anxious and OC about this. Thanks bro

does this surface require a ("paper" gasket? if so, you'd have to adapt that too and you would have very little material left to seal.. but i'd test it before i'd put epoxy there, with the chance of coming loose and breaking more than a blown gasket would, i guess..

It will be mated with a aluminum baseplate and gasket, i did however lay on some epoxy outside the skirt just to have a bit of sealing surface

Use some liquid sealer on the base gasket and you'll be totaly fine.

outside would be the safest (and you don't lose the nicely matched port again)
