Re: Why the diameter decrease as the pitch increases?

Funny, I don't see an answer to my question from mercury yet Walleyehed answered it straight off. :) <br /><br />I have to admit I'm kinda tempted to get a 4cyl merc 50 powerhead into the machine shop and do some major mods on it in the same manner as 2-stroke bikes.<br /><br /> I'm thinking bike profile pistons, remodel the crankcase and make some blank reed blocks then put 4 carbs on with external reed blocks,balance the crank, lighten the flywheel,play with the port heights and profiles and build a set of 4 above-water expansion chamber exhausts. <br />Just for the hell of it of course, and to see how fast I can get the RIB to go with no real weight increase...<br /><br />Besides, 4 'spannies would look and sound gorgeous. :D
