Batam indonesia, if u have a time, u can go to Johor region if u want to find more products and brands. I'm not prefer UMA Racing, since the brand was expensive. ahahaha.
For me, no problem if u use any brand. the most important, piston type, piston pin, and the way u setup and setting ur spec. As long u make it tidy and follow the rules, should be no problem.
But if u are the speed hunter, "hati kering" wants more speed. U need to think about the durability each brands and products.
1-Conrod - U can use back, as long it was not too loose or can pull up or push down at the crankshaft.
2-Valve - Can use back, but prefer to do re-grind valve in order to prevent lose compression or "valve bocor".
3-Head - can use back, better with port the intake and exhaust. the inlet follow the carb size. better performance. If u have more money, can change to bigger valve, 19/22. adjust compression ratio. Lay the head about 0.4mm - 1.00mm max.
4-Camshaft - Preferable to change big lift more than std. Mostly Indonesian product, they high lift but small duration. More to pickup and track session but not topspeed and long distance type. In Malaysia, use CMS T2, as cheaper and easy to find. Can support pickup n top speed, long distance.
Camshaft have many profile, i can share with u if u want.
5-Cylinder Block - SCK, the quality were great but need to see the pin piston, because if u want to change a new pin piston, u need to go to machine shop to cut or adjust. SCK pin piston not same with other type.
MDS also good choice, cheaper than UMA, can be considered too, but please check the piston material n everything.
CMS can be use because have two type, forged piston or std piston. but the price a bit higher than other.
SBM rare block, but very good quality plus have the deeper water space.
KFC block also good but rarely to find.
P/s - For myself, i'm prefer MB (Malay Bengkel) Block. Tested for long, track use, and also the engineering idea are good. two choice, std piston or dome piston.
wah! this is good info. thanks!
BTW, I bought CMS 62mm block, piston and SP carb, will be installing somewhere this week. Will need your advise later when I going to get my head, valve, spring and cam.
