Looks like I am picking up 66mm Trinity stage 2 cylinders with wiesco pistons for a good price. Most likely going with a brand new crank/ bearings. It’s just a matter of whats salvageable. I know I will need cyl and pistons without a doubt. Trying to save my cool head, so I will just pickup new domes for it. ---

most if not alll failures are from inproper cyl balance excessive beating without a good tune ,if all is right they dont blow up as long as maintanance is done and top ends done on time ,there is a reason they tell ya to redo it at 10-20 hrs of race use ya know ---
