if a 2-stroke wouldnt work then how much would i be lookin at to rebuild my engine?

 

A 2 stroke is more money than its worth after you get everything you need. Here's a price list:
200 for crank, includes shipping to send it out
175 to get top end rebuilt, includes shipping it out
40 for bottom end bearings that might need replacing, 15 for bottom end shifter seals, 25 for sealer for the cases, that's about it. If you do all this, it should last another 25 years, maybe longer, I have a crank just rebuilt, hasn't been used since rebuild ill sell if u want to make an offer

 

I'm having a VERY hard time finding a high compression piston for Suzi. Any suggestions?

 

hey tom, is that price list for 2-stroke parts or to rebuild my 4-stroke?

 

i think that wiseco sells a high compresssion piston kit. check out vances in kentucky. it might be the place i saw it at.

 

well been trying to get this frankinquad 230/160 running right for over a year,..after reduin carb an cdi an coil,..finnaly broke down an opend up the wireing an removed bout a mile of redneckness an low an behold lil quad running like a champ now!! thanks for all the info on here an valt an all the answers from you all!!

 

You put the 230 engine into a 160? Can you post some pictures of that? I have a 160 and I don't think I would be comfortable going that fast on it, without doing some work to the suspension.

 

Thats for the 4-stroke 230. Rebuilt correctly and these things are pretty bullet proof. A 2 stroke you are looking at, an lt250r for example:
Buy engine that needs rebuild $200-$400
Buy crank: $200 for new hot rods
Bottom end seals $30-$50
Bottom end bearings $40
$200 for top end rebuild kit, includes boring
$50-$100 for new transmission parts because there is almost something that goes in that transmission everytime
Buy wiring: $100
Buy carb:$50
Metal to make engine mounts: $25, have to cut and make them yourself
More money than its worth.

 

I think his is a 230 with a 160 engine if I remember correctly.

 

ok guys,here we go. the engine is trashed. it has the original oil & oil filter. i told ya it was all original and it is. the left side cover has a hole in it but it doesnt leak. the bearing carrier has a crack in it. at this point i am going to strip it to the frame and start from scratch. i want to do hare scrambles and gncc racing with it so i am gonna need some help. what i need help with is what peformance parts to put on and where to get them.
