 I measured the squish with a piece of solder in about 6 places through the spark plug hole
But once i realized the cylinder nuts were about to fall off i see it was a futile effort lol
You wouldnt recomend the wiesco with the "window" mod.  I see they were available here
Are they still? I did about a day or so of reading on this sight and others before i decided to join here You guys seem to genuinely want to help.  Its only money haha. Yea.  But when your done Its one of the badest things ever built  I did aquick port cleanup last night and its been in The parts washer spa since. I will send it to mellinium as soon as it is clean  I have to rebuild the shock and ive ordered a tripple tree and forks from a kfx450 04 i think it was .I also ordered all the bearings and seals for the swing arm, shock, wheels ,ect  ect ect

I appreciate any help or advice. Im sure this will be a long Process
