I have used the Hoca 54mm cylinder. I like it. I've used it on Project 90 and used it for a great street driver 103cc (45mm stroke). It's a good street kit. If you want to do much porting, it's easier with the standard layout cylinders (just 1 exhaust port... Hoca has aux ex ports).
The crank should be good quality, but I've never used that one. Have used a 45mm they used to sell.
This month PFS has code "STILLSUMMER" for 10% off.

smooth for better air flow

I've polished the exhaust port before, but it doesn't seem to do much. I thought at least it would help a little with carbon, but not for long if at all. Polish the exhaust if you'd like, the rest should just be a reasonably smooth finish. Keeping a little texture to the surfaces is said to create some turbulence and help keep the fuel atomized better than a totally smooth surface.

That Hoca head is tall. Mine would basically fit. It clearanced itself (melted). I think I got these from kaseaparts.com, but I don't think they're any longer since this was a shorter cylinder.

hahaha...that makes it easy....i was able to get it on with a little clearance work but it will still need to do some clearance work its self...hahaha....i got the engine back in the scoot and tried to fire it up but no go...still no spark....i replace the coil but i guess thats not the issue....when i tried to fire it up it hit a few times like it wanted to start then just quit again....i cant find any loose wires....its either the cdi or pick up....has anyone had one go bad before? any way to test these parts?

Check the gap between the pickup and reluctor. Something like a credit card's thickness (.030") will work, down to around .010". Too much gap and they will miss or not fire at all.
I've had CDIs and stators go bad. CDI you need to replace to test. There are specs and test info for the stator in the service manual (follow link in sig).
