I would have thought you don't have to look far for that within your own hydro group - from what I have seen the accomplishments there are impressive indeed to put it mildly. I was in awe at the examples of the motors on the stand at Ally Pally.
My own attempts (at tuning) have been based on others knowledge, both written and first hand, but found it a bit hit and miss - and very much easier to miss than hit and bugger up the reasonable performance that you began with
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I may be wrong here but outside of some basic principles I feel it's also 'event specific' - what may be okay for one kind of use may not do for another. I must admit though that building the S&J engine has harboured thoughts of an own design 5cc incorporating features to enhance performance but it's a way off yet.
Regards - Ramon

A wonderful project. I've really enjoyed all the posts and explanations. Thanks.
I have to make a prop driver, so will try your little dodge with the knurling tool at 90°.
Keep up the good work
