Mac102004 429 Posted November 26, 2019 There are some nice motor builds going on, new stuff everyday it seems. I heard talk of someone making custom rods for the 350D crank so it would better fit the 300 cylinder. Would be a neat upgrade, keep the 2 valve head, gain 1.5mm stroke.... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Randolph_ 4 Posted November 28, 2019 Dang wheeler, I guess I haven’t been keeping up like I should, what’s happened to your 300 now to make it need splitting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really don't know to be honest.. It started leaking oil on the right side in behind the motor mount. I found a hair line crack which I temporarily patched with JB Weld. It got me thru hunting season. Mac sent me a set of good cases, so over the winter I'm going to split the motor, replace all bearings & what not... & hopefully give the lil 300 another bump up in power! lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
