PORTING THE GRUBEE CYLINDER
Here are the measured
distances from the top of
the stock cylinder:
engine exhaust transfers intake* piston skirt**
48cc 28mm
32mm 55.5mm 44.8mm
66cc 29.3mm
33.1mm
57mm 44.7mm
* measured to bottom of intake port
** measured from top edge
of piston
(66cc is the cylinder the factory calls 80cc. It is 66cc when measured the most common way.)
Assuming a .7mm deck height (distance from top edge of piston to top of
cylinder at TDC) here are the port durations in degrees:
engine exhaust transfers intake
48cc 140.7
110.3
113
66cc 141.6
114.7 117.6
To have better power for street use I recommend you
change the distances from the port edge to the TDC line (deck) on the cylinder* to these for exhaust durations of 150 for the 48cc and of 165 for the 66cc:
exhaust
25.9mm (48cc)
24.9mm (66cc)
* TDC line is the point on the cylinder where the top of the piston is at the top of its movement.
If you use a porting
durations calculator such as Jaaps then you'll need to know these specs
also:
engine stroke con rod
48cc 38mm 85mm
66cc 40mm 89mm
Here is my method for measuring deck height accurately which takes into
account expansion by heat:
Measure from the cylinder top to the top ring markings on the cylinder.
That is A. Measure from top of piston ring to top edge of piston. That
is B. Subtract B from A to get C, the deck height.
