MOPED ARMY

"This thread":http://www.mopedarmy.com/forums/discuss/read.php?f=7&i=89881&t=89881&v=f is gold. I think you can get the necessary bushing from Ike's Bikes -- just send an e-mail and ask if he's got what you need. Once you change out the bushing, you can use the Puch kits or the Tomos A35 kits. Probably the best (and cheapest) place to look for those is Treats. Just know that if you put a Puch kit on it, you'll have to do a little fabrication/making-it-work on your exhaust -- Tomoses have an angled exhaust port and the pipe goes out to the right side. Puchs (70cc and below, anyway) have a flat exhaust port and the exhaust goes to the left. You'll probably have to invent a new mount and/or cut and weld a Puch exhaust to fit a Tomos kit and vice versa.

Heh. Thx you answered while I was posting again... Damn I was hoping it'd be easier than that. Plus I kinda like the look of the stock exhaust - but I guess a biturbo or something like that would be in order to make the most of it. No chance of using the stock pipe with out the baffle?

Yep, with the Puch wrist pin bushing, you open the door to the wonderful and fully-fleshed-out world of Puch and Tomos kits. If you go with a Tomos kit, you can keep the stock exhaust, but I wouldn't unless you _want_ to restrict the power you'll be getting with a kit. Usually I tell people who want to mod their mopeds to start with an exhaust because it's cheaper than a kit and harder to mess up. Since you want to replace your top end anyway, you might as well kit it instead of going stock again (A3 cylinders are pretty wimpy).

You should really get an exhaust to complement the kit, though. If you like the stock pipe, the Bullet is pretty close -- I've got one for my A3, and it looks nice (also said to be higher quality than the Biturbo). Treats is out of stock of them right now, but you could sign up to get e-mailed when any of the pipes you like you like are back in stock.

Treats is also a good place to get jets, since you'll need those once you put all this performance stuff on -- if you've got the Encarwi carb, you can use Bing jets, although a lot of people would tell you to get at least a 15.15 Dellorto SHA if you're going to kit it.

Okay, the Alukit is a good choice. Well, not like I have any experience with it, but it's got reeds at least, and those are good. That carb you've got on the picture is a PHBG -- they have 3 jets and are a lot harder to tune than the SHA you've probably got in there now. They're also bigger, and the SHA is a tight squeeze as it is. I'm pretty sure the PHBG isn't going to fit in that stupid hole (I'm not a fan of the carb under frame thing), and it definitely won't fit with that air filter on it. If you want to run that carb and air filter, you'll need to invent a new intake that gets the carb out of that hole. Or, you could get this. Lastly, if you do end up getting the clamp style PHBG, you don't need the rubber mount.

On the petcock, you've got a few options. The Maxi ones should fit, although the little bendy part might be a little weird (but maybe not... if your Bullet is like my Bullet, it's pretty much the same as a Maxi). I've heard that the Honda Hobbit and Vespa Bravo petcocks fit Puchs, and right now I've got an A35 petcock on my Puch, so I would assume that the Hobbit and Bravo petcocks would also work on an A35 or A3. I would feel most comfortable saying that this one would work on your ped, though I don't want to guarantee that 100%.

just stay with a piston port and you can keep your carb and intake the puch 70cc kstar kit or the 65 metra will work and be buch lees work to try for your 1st kit if it was me i would get the

70cc kstar puch

70cc head puch

estoril tomos

make an air filter

get like the next 10 jets up from your stock one or just drill your stock one tell it makes the plug black than go down 1

That is sounding more reasonable... is this what you mean? sorry to seam ignorant but I didn't find "kstar" anywhere in there
