Changfa Engines / utterpower changfa cooling conversion plate specifics
« on: August 04, 2018, 01:06:31 PM »
Planning on converting the Changfa 1115 to radiator thermosiphon cooling. George's plate seems to have the thermostat on what I'd consider to be the proper place for the "cool" inlet return line closer to the crankshaft, farther away from the head. The port by the top of the cylinder would presumably be the "hot" side outlet. Also, there should apparently be a tube extending down into the jacket a few inches on the return line?
Can someone please talk me through the physics and thinking about these conversion plates? My understanding is that the cool return line should drop in via that extension tube closer to the crankshaft, and the outlet should be near the top of the cylinder, with no extension tube. Correct?
Also, I've been looking everywhere for a copy of the utterpower CD, but there's no link to buy them anymore. Can anyone tell me where I can find one? I'd love to see what's on it.
Thanks in advance for all advice.
