hmm ... it could be done ? liquid cooled engine :))
« on: June 18, 2010, 08:21:11 PM »
I was looking on to the sip site from zombie (great site man thanks it have even prices in my money mark and decent prices ) and something jump in my face ... Radiator MALOSSI "Ideal to rebuild your air cooled scooter to a water cooled system[...]" I wonder if you really could turn into a LC ...yes you can put the radiator ,water pump ,hoses  but important part is when you need to put that hose and water into the cylinder walls ,cuz there are special cylinder for water cooling for gy6 but only from 125 cc up I saw ,something like
but I didn't saw for 80 cc or 90 and I am wondering if you do those chanels for water at lathe .I wonder if there is enough material to cut from cuz AC cylinders have wings for cooling so I think its a little bit complicate ... and you need a special head as well to match with top of cylinder ... sounds hard to do it without this 2 ,cylinder and head...
I will put the links with parts avaible for LC system complete my knowledge about that subject if there is anymore :

Hose: http://www.sip-scootershop.com/EN/Products/17060000/Water+hose+rimiator+l1m.aspx
And few other things gauges etc :http://www.sip-scootershop.com/EN/main/base/Results.aspx?d=%28sco%29&s=c6aad1e8e7504c22bc950638d453e80c&a=1&sort=0&uc=%289baede47d43e46f6be351116d55c299c%29

I just want to know if it can be done :)) sounds cool agility 50 LC :D , If I will find a treasure I will put those things on "to do" list :))

I honestly believe it would make more sense to buy a wrecked lc anything, and mount the engine as a whole into your frame. I am looking for a 125cc anything to mount into my zx. Then I can do a 125 kit on the zx engine. I had a chance at a totaled dink, but the insurance company had other plans for it.

yes you can take the system from other scoot but you cant take the cylinder ... so how do you cool the engine ,you steel need to cut your cylinder ,and is there ok if you leave the head alone and put water just in cylinder frame and sealing with a gasket between cylinder and head ... How do you plan to do at your zx zombie ?

What I meant is take the entire LC engine , and mount it into your frame. I am looking at a mhr stroker crank, and and a 54mm dio jug kit. I plan to build a low rpm (9'000) hi torque engine. I don't want more than 70mph as the frame cannot handle it but I would like to get to 60 in 3-4 seconds. This has been on my mind for more than a year, and can be done over a weekend. I have the intake/tires/cvt. so it is just machine work in the cases/exhaust/bigger fuel cell, and done!
