Sorry I'm copying a link to the story and posting it here, but there are links to the vidoes on photobucket within the story, and on YouTube under CoreyDSFA. Added them below, just in case.

The APE Head was not installed for this race, as I'm tossing up the idea of sending them a crank to perform their magic on, then rebuild a complete bottom end, adding the 615cc, Megacycle Cam, and ported head onto it.

Current race bike engine was removed from my daily commuter, and ran excellent all weekend, but saw oil temps from the oil pan, in the 274-285F range. I must be getting additional heat from the case as well. Zephyr ZR550 Oil Cooler planned for the next race May 22 also at Infineon.

Enjoy!

You're welcome, and anytime.

The photobucket link in your signature doesn't lead us to your pictures. :(

Strange, it used to. I just fixed it...my sig line cut off the last few letters of the hyperlink text for some reason.

Corey - the YouTube link isn't working - it just tries to take you to the MyFiles section, which would be different for every YouTube user with their own account.

good for you...very cool... a good working oil cooler on non /stoppping/ never slow down runs is must right??...and probably the real only time one is mandatory unless way bored up or lving in fresno????.......

how did you do the catch pan -spoiler chin- have you seen a link to any sights selling em for double cradle fours..??

what tires did you run and how'd you like em....

very cool....nice

p.s...if you go back a page or two on the e-bay thread...there is a silver aluminum fork brace...link to that seller...as he seems to have some real trick 550 stuff in his e-bay store...may have the cooler and fittings for a gpz550 too i think
