CDH Power DIO reed cylinder. Is this port timing normal???

Who? I looked for an hour trying to find it with no luck!

I bought my engine off eBay from China and that's how I got that cylinder. The post showed a normal slant head and cylinder but that's not what I got

Someone else is making a 1 piece cylinder/ head. Looks like the slant head.

I think I'd hit the "return request" on that one, and they'll likely send you the engine they advertised without asking for the odd one back.

They only accepted returns if shipment is DOA. No longer an issue, it grenaded and I'm rebuilding the engine. But that cylinder was alot better at clearing the ports than what I have right now

It was mentioned on the forum. Think I saw it on walmart.com lol.

CDH is using a 40mm stroke long rod with B type piston and 2 base gaskets. So with the longer stroke and 2 bases the top of the piston opens the transfers almost if not completely. Your 38mm stroke with a single base won't work well with a cdh jug.

Note taken, I compensated with 3 base gaskets and sanded alot off the top of the cylinder. What you say makes sense for how it's set up stock.

Edit: Does anyone know where I could find a cylinder base plate to raise the cylinder without as many paper base gaskets.

You would have to make one.
