Hey all Im posting this thread to ask what the difference I can see if I added a reed to my engine it would be great if someone could post a video to show this also. Thanks ~Cylon

see my page showing power boost of 50% on a Zundapp by adding a reed valve, holing the piston skirt, and derailing in a boost port: http://www.dragonfly75.com/motorbike/reedvalve.html

That's a piston I already did before I relized it would only work with a reed do you think it is done right or are the holes to messed up? I had a hard time keeping the drill from slipping as I don't have a press.

that should be fine, just get all that junk out of the ring grooves
