Sport G23LH modified engine

[Silverbullitt7]

These days everyone or a lot of people modify a GSR. And people that modify a sport just buy a new engine. Maybe they modify it, maybe not.
I get it, buying a quick double horsepower engine is easy. I have done it as well.
BUT, how many recently just modified a stock G23LH. And by that I mean, who has done free modifications???
Porting, blueprinting, modify a stock carb, modify a stock muffler, etc, all in the search for better flow and more power.
I will do this. But interested in people who have. A little work can go a long way. No extra money spent and put out as much or more power than a bought G230RC engine.
The experience that the early pioneers of the first or second Gopeds can be resurrected or brought back to life for the history or the sport.

I’m in the beginning of doing the same, but I’d like a second top end just in case I F it up 😂
was looking at this motor but only have a pic and can’t figure out what it is…anyone have any thoughts?

Can you ask for more pics? Hard to see, looks like a 23cc lower, maybe a G23LH, but top looks bigger. Maybe a big bore, 25cc. Obviously a tuned pipe and stock 15mm carb. Depending on the price, I would buy it.

I am about to stock porting my stock used head and case. I have 2 heads, one has a helicoil. But, it was installed too high, a loss of compression with that.
Has ANYONE deleted the base gasket???
I am not sure what squish is good for the G23LH. I will run 93 but I am willing to run an octane booster. Compression always helps power.

I'm currently doing the same. I have a Stock G23 (working on building out a 29cc with a stroker big bore head) I will be porting it and have kicked around keeping it stock displacement and just finding a second Z case to build out. (Might throw this TS head kit on it as well, I can't decide🤣)

The only mod that is non-negotiable for me is an upgraded carb. The stock carb just isn't "IT" for me. You can easily get a WA167 new for less than $50 tuneable and plenty for a stock motor. But, that's just my opinion.

If anyone comes across any Zenoah G23 cases let me know. Locals want stupid money for these stock engines, I could just buy another HT.

Yeah I have a few 167 carbs and a few 668 carbs. I want to push the stock parts as far as possible. Almost done, a little held back by not having piston rings. Next time I will use a single ring piston for higher RPM's.
ddm has a cheap CY case, I bought one to build up. Cy23rc.
