ah damn. just googled blaster cooling and it popped up. Hoping to be a hero

 

[blasterboy91]

ya it def is...it has to be...i mean its a must for the banshee so why not the blaster???

 

[01 fmf blaster]

it might work but looks ugly imo

 

[06kid]

i want to do to it to mine i think it will be worth it should run cooler

 

[skillet]

lets be honest, the radiator looks cool as hell. but IDK if it would be worth it unless used in severe heat doing long endurance runs?

how about just paint your cylinder with white heat paint for $7

WTF? a window popped up and said i had to have 15 characters to post a reply?

i know a few years back that a few guys were trying to get Chozen performance to make them but never did

it's not cooling anything, eccept the head. it adds weight and doesn't accomplish a thing.
in order to work it needs to cool the jug. if you want your blaster water cooled, get a DT topend and convert it.

if you guys read the thread at the top you would see some good info

Danny is right ,the whole idea is too keep the bore rounder longer by cooling the walls through the stroke action ,sure the head holds alot of heat but the sides are equally as important to maintan cool temps

 

[Blaster_Kart]

Has anyone ever tested one of these to see how much it will lower jug temps? I would think some heat transfer would occur, and the head would wick away at least a portion of the jugs heat.

I doubt it has the capacity, but I would still be interested to see some thermal probe analysis to either prove or disprove that the system will move heat away from both the head and jug. On that note, if it only effectively cools the head and very top of the jug, could it cause issues with expansion rates along the sleeve, and actually make the bore shape inconsistent...?

im intrested in the diffrent domes, 18-24cc.. anyone have any info on that idea?? flotek?

Haha sorry to bring back an old thread guys but was wondering the same thing. I can either get a cool head or an entire DT200 motor and some spare parts from a very, very, secret place. =] I have a buddy with 3 complete DT200 motors in the back room. So what do you guys think?

 

[specialized7]

anyone thinking about gettin this i will sell you a dt200 cylinder for the same price lol

 

[York Racing]

Haha is it that bad? And I can buy a whole new DT200 motor with the stock bore. The motor has the plug in it that it left the factory with. lol

WTF? Where did you find these at? :-/

 

[specialized7]
