Nice Mike. Are you selling the completed cyclone kit now?
Is the whole setup any skinnier than the Small Block?
If so, I'd like to get one fitted to a Qulbix Q76. I can drop ship a frame to you if you need one in the shop play with. Do you think it would be a quieter application than the Small Block?
I tried to put together a deal with another vendor to offer complete upgraded Cyclone kits but it fell apart. I'm going to continue with that on my own. I can offer a lightning-rodded Cyclone as fast as I can get the base kit here from Paco, which is usually about a week using air freight.
The 1800-3000 (I'm calling my modded version "Hurricane" kits just to relate to Cyclone and not to have to use the number designation) motor alone is about the width and power of the small block motor. With the addition of the planetary reduction next to the motor the overall width is slightly more than the Big Block. It's as wide as it can be and still fit inside of the pedal crank arcs on the 148mm BB axle.
I don't think that the Hurricane will be quieter or more powerful than the Small Block. They should be comparable in power and noise level and the Hurricane will be less money.
I can definitely install one on a Q76 for you and would love to have one in the shop to check out. Ship away!
