Title: To Shuffle pin or not Post by: drgouk on January 25, 2008, 07:35:58 am Hi, Looking for advice on my next project engine, A 2275cc bulit on a mag case. Do i need to shuffle pin or not?
I am planing on using a DPR full circle 82mm welded crank with 411 centre main, vw rod journal. It will have CE or JPM heads. Look forward to your opinions.

That's about the last engine that needs shuffle pins. What RPMs will it turn? Title: Re: To Shuffle pin or not Post by: drgouk on January 25, 2008, 07:44:12 am I would think 7000-7500 rpm.
Yeah, i know, it should be a strong piece. Title: Re: To Shuffle pin or not Post by: drgouk on January 25, 2008, 20:01:34 pm The other thing is, how many guys run the rubber cam plug? Or should i machine the case to take a metal cam plug?

I would use shuffle pins on the center main in every case . It is a good way to make the case stronger . Don't know anything about full circle cranks . Regards Udo |
