CR vs Wr 1982 250

Show a picture of the base on the intake side

Is it correct that the base on the intake side has no holes?

Yes the WR cylinder would not have holes on the base on the intake side.

Thank you.

I know nothin' about the 82's so for what its worth, heres a page from a CW article on the 82 WR and XC with pics of the cylinder base.

gotta be a subscriber is what im getting. Can you post that page Daryn?

Thanks for posting that. I have loved that article for decades, but I can’t get to the pics either. I’d love to see them, thank you.

Thanks Crashaholic for the link! I had no idea of where I was supposed to be looking for those base holes. Mine definitely doesn’t have those.

I’m not a subscriber to CW either but for some reason can see all the photos and links. Here are clips of the photos of interest.

Don't need to subscribe, click the link, move mouse over article and click, when ask you to sign in, in the upper right of the shaded area click the X and it goes back to the article and has left and right arrows to use to go through the article. That's how it works for me. Hope that makes sense.

That is the WR cylinder. Like I was saying above the WR cylinder does not have the addition intake ports at the cylinder base. The 83 WR cylinder is the same as the 82 WR cylinder.

Not sure what holes your referring to can someone point to them?

I'm learning this, too, so please correct me if I'm wrong. It must be the two holes I've shown with the arrow.
Until I have this in my hands, I'm not sure what the flow path is with a base gasket in place.




I am on the lookout to buy one, even a junk one for temporary planning.

I can see a shoulder at the bottom perimeter of those two transfer holes. That may be what the base gasket sits against. I would guess that the cases would have similar square openings to accommodate these ports. Good idea for increasing fuel-air mix volume to the combustion chamber.

The gasket does not locate on the area where the two intake transfer ports are. Those two ports dump directly into the crank well or cavity.

On closer look I can see the outline of the gasket surface.

Gasket surface is roughly the area between the red lines.
