Hi, havent got round to that as yet, Depends what role I built it for. Did you have anything in mind? Vince
The cases on my 2004, 350 Electra are stamped “C4 & 500”. I don’t know the significance of this but it might mean that later cases suit either capacity.Adrian wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2020 3:11 pmLighter flywheels for something sporty (well, by Bullet standards, anyway) or heavy ones for trials or a touring plodder. Not sure where our hosts' own super-dooper 500 crankshafts would be classified on those terms.
ISTRC something in the back of my mind about the 500's cases having better main bearing support compared to the 350, but as I often get tripped up by the subtle differences between Redditch and Indian Bullet engines, perhaps Bullet Whisperer or someone could confirm whether or not that is actually so. Don't think I'd want to trust a 612 kit to to a set of bored-out 350 cases. A.
I can confirm this is the case with Indian motors. The first donor engine I got for my 612 turned out to be an overbored 1991 350, not an 2003 500 as the logbook and registration would have had me believe.Adrian wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2020 3:11 pmISTRC something in the back of my mind about the 500's cases having better main bearing support compared to the 350, but as I often get tripped up by the subtle differences between Redditch and Indian Bullet engines, perhaps Bullet Whisperer or someone could confirm whether or not that is actually so.
