Needs chuck replaced. New belts and spindle bearings, new chuck slider plate. Collet chuck conversion included also. Bought a center less valve grinder when this one would not meet my requirements. $2,000 cash.

Norm,

The one I have on my dyno is a four wire, but it only uses two of the wires.

I think it is a stepper motor. Try a google search for rotary pulse generator or stepper motor. Might want to include 5 mm shaft to narrow down the results.

Okay. That is the 50 Hz encoder. Let me see what I can dig up for you.

NormS,

Are you referring to the encoder on the water brake or the electronic tach itself? Also, do you know if yours is 50 Hz (SuperFlow) or 60 Hz (Stuska)? I may have the Hz/brake manufacturer mixed up as I am going from memory and don't have access to notes at the moment.

I did not purchase through eBay, so no help there. My bank is working on it through my commercial account. For now, I will let them do their job. If it does not go in my favor, I will pursue other options.

I have been trying to give time to allow this individual to make things right. I doubt that will happen. Long story short, I made arrangements to purchase two pair of new cylinder heads plus shipping. Attempted payment through PayPal. Kept having issues with purchasing item/service so he encouraged ...

In my OPINION, the cylinder head rules as written are still not clear as to whether the port entries can be filled / raised / widened, which I know ended up being a point of debate after last year's competition: Welding/epoxy/porting within ports permitted. Ports must remain in their original as ca...

I was looking used initially, then aftermarket when I couldn't find a decent used block close enough to put my hands on before purchase. All the suppliers I've spoken with don't have any SB2.2 blocks and don't have a run date to produce any.

Thanks Charlie.

These are SB2.2 heads, by the way. I have a habit of calling this design SB2.

I have a set of SB2 heads that I am trying to figure out which block to go with. I’ve been trying to find a block with the lifter bores specific to the SB2 configuration with little luck. I was told that the raised cam blocks eliminate the need for the offset lifter bores. This is my first venture i...
