Title: Interchangability between B44 and B50
Post by: Marc.com on February 24, 2011, 03:07:56 pm

Just sitting contemplating a few bits of mixed parentage.

What can I swap between the B44 and B50 motors, looks like most things at the moment.

Yeah really good book, it has convinced me I need more expensive bits ::)... anyway most things will swap with a bit of work, except head and barrel..... so B50 cam, CCM rod, B50MX piston and liner just went on the list along with short push rods to get 11:1 compression. Plus a few detail things like cast iron oil pump and engine breather mods.
