Case Puller

[CLIFF S]

Anyone Ever Put Large Pistons in a SC Case?
I was Thinking around 4 inch or So!

I Know these are not the Most Desireable Case But there Differnt and I Have one to Experment with and I shure dont want to see it end up in CHINA!

I was Thinking it May Be A Good Challange to Build and Fun if it works out ok!

If Nothing else it would Be a conversation Piece!

Hi Cliff, Evan came home with a SC a guy has been pulling. Can"t wait to try her out. I will get a pic and post, maybe you have seen it.

4 will fit as well as a 5.5 or 6"stroke

I Figured the 4 in pistons would fit and maby that much Stroke But My Concern is Will the Head Breave Good Enough to Stroke it That Much ?

My thoughts where to just put Pistons in for Now and see how it Worked Then Maby at a later Date Stroke it if it Made Good enough Power!

I am Thinking of Doing what I Can on the Head First Then Flow Bench it to See what Cubes the Head will Support!

Any Thoughts on the Best Head The Shrouded High Comp or the Open coumbustion Low Comp Head?

My Thoughts is the Open low comp would Flow Better because of Less Shrouding!

Any Ideas?

Any Idea How Lite weight you Can get with Tin Wheeles and Striped?

I'm not sure what the head will flow, a friend put valves out of a 260 ford (if I remember correctly) into one years ago, with 3 11/16 pistons for field work, said it would really pull but wasn't easy on gas anymore! You won't need the smaller chamber 5617 head, with increased displacement the 5618 will be fine. John Stek from Oskaloosa ,Ia has an sc built up. The old one at 4x5.5 would make 72 hp or so. I've seen it pull at Sigourney and it ran good. He building a bigger one and was going to sell me the old block but I have too many other projects.

Sounds like it worked Good!

I Grew up on one and allway though it would be something differnt to pull!

I been gethering Parts for Tin wheeles etc for a few years but other Projects pushed it Back But Hopefuly i can get a good Start on it this Winter after 3 engines rebuilds and a couple small jobs to do gets done!

Sounds like I may end up on 2 nd Shift with O/T on Weekends at work for a wile So working on Tractors will be more the Norm than going to Maney Pulls Next Summer!

I plan on two tone it like the SC we had when i was a kid!

I would like to get it in 3500 if I Can !

Thanks
