And yes, I did see yours. thnx.I like to do lots of research before I decide to do anything now and that involves sitting down and thinking about it on and off. I'll think about whether that's procrastination or not and get back to you in the fullness of timehehehe Edited 28/11/14 06:02 AM by BenDoCo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've done some really nice mods to it. You'll be really happy with the upgrade I'm certain. Look forward to seeing you get it done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber Carnage on the Garage Floor Donating Members 3,994 Member For: 14y 7m 3d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast Posted 28/11/14 07:17 AM Share Posted 28/11/14 07:17 AM The port & flapper mod has a heap of threads and info on it but some quick points:Check for cracks around all holes before you even startEnsure it doesn't have excessive shaft play (pretty rare but my donor was rooted requiring new bush and shaft) by pulling down on the arm, simulating the actuator, so the flapper is in the closed off position. If the bush/shaft is flogged out with a bit of pre-load applied (again as the actuator does) it will lift the opposite side of the flapper off its seat. Unsure the top part of the port remains essentially as is to ensure the oversized flapper will not pinch/catch as the flapper returns to seat. Basically, the port ends up being 'D' shaped with the top or pivot end being kinda flat, as material is removed both on the sides and bottom to create the 33mm oversized port.Also grind the end of the boss (that retains the bush) a little, to ensure the flapper clears as it passes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
