If this was the only thing in life you missed...you'd be WAY Ahead of where you are now. If only you were that lucky... Have a nice trip to the fire station? Here I thought you were the laughing stock of HQ. It appears you're well versed in being humiliated on any forum you join. http://www.competitiondiesel.com/forums/sh...read.php?t=4681

Apparently....he's becoming a firefighter. Sliding down poles and pulling hoses seems to appeal to him: http://www.competitiondiesel.com/forums/sh...read.php?t=4681

Replace the one piston. You really, REALLY should check piston to wall clearance on both before you reassemble it. Check ring end gap. Muratic Acid will get the aluminum off the cylinder wall. Please, do yourself a favor and do a leak down test on the motor before you even fire it up. 10 hours between builds is retarded.... Have you had the crank inspected, checked for wear, trued, welded? If the crank is separating or bearings are going bad...you'll be doing this all over again...and soon.

Clearwater? that's the home of Hooters...hell yeah... CSRMEL is kidding...Loco. He prefers to be on the receiving end of things...and doesn't even ask for a reach around. He's closer to Key West....

You Reap what you sow.... This guy has been begging for it...now...he's got it.

This...is an ALL TIME CLASSIC. This clown has the nerve to call me fat ass...etc. We must really be under his skin. Isn't this you at YellowStone? Or did you lift someone else's pic from MySpace. Please give me a good story for this one. Please give me a great excuse... Yeah, you're a roll model of fitness. A Jelly Roll. Now STFU Fat Fuck.

Yep...I guess we're not his pawns anymore...huh. Sometimes the truth hurts... Merry Christmas Tyler...and the rest of our FAST Nutswinging convention....LOL.

Ha Ha Ha Ha... I've broke plenty of shit, and learned as well. Before you keep running your mouth, you realize nothing on my bike currently is from FAST? Ok...I do have a clutch perch from him...so I guess that is why I'm doing all this nut swinging... My 4 mil cub Jeff cleaned up by Jeff I sold years ago because I stepped up to a 10 mil. Who's the clown now? Wait...I got my smaller air filters from him too. I posted that thread because you two geniuses should know how the motor runs, how to tune it, etc. You guys have tuned on bikes from all these builders...and are the kings of your domain. Surely...with all that base of knowledge you don't need little old PS to help you describe what a motor can do, how it can run, etc. You guys know it all. And I don't need to try any crybaby shit over there. Did you happen to notice the posts I've got on there and how long I've been a member? Another proof of your intelligence. I can more than appreciate the quest for knowledge anyone may have. We all did start somewhere... But what you continue to NOT understand is you two trying to talk down and put down a builder that has forgotten more than you'll both ever know....period. As good as I am at running my mouth, I'm better at running my bike and tuning it. THAT is the difference between me and you two. I don't have to try hard for the comebacks...with what you two post it's like open season hunting dumbasses. I don't even have to bait...you guys just flop open in the field waiting to be shot down. Shit...BEGGING for it. Now we're FAST Fags...Gregrob...I thought you were just kidding about the whole thread. Someone's getting a little testy... Go open your presents...my bitch, my pawn....and have a Merry Red Nut Sack Christmas.....

He tunes so well you still ask for help getting your bike that used to be FAST tuned. I've ridden my bike more than anyone by far. I have pictures galore AND videos to prove it. And you can ask anyone that has said anything in this tread from MI...they will vouch I ride my own bike all day long. In organized drag racing, heads up...skinny kids go on bikes. I am 6 foot tall, and if I got down to 180 lbs, I'd look like an Ethiopian and would still be heavier than the younger/smaller jockeys others use. I like the fact that my bike can run with some of the fastest out there and has....and that's proven. That's not me talking about what my bike ran when someone else owned it, etc. That was my bike, setup by me without even being to Gilbert...2nd place isn't so bad. Especially considering the competition and their setups... Once again...you're clowned. If I'm so bad at tuning....maybe you should take your mouth off his dick, stop gazing into his eyes long enough to read a few threads up where HE asked ME for tuning advice. Here, I'll do that for you. Here is a quote from your good buddy...his words, not mine. "Your help with some of my problems in the past has been top notch, and I appreciate it. I would probably still be screwing with that set of methanol carbs that had .128 dump tubes in them if you hadn't helped me out with it. I'm not afraid to say that I've had problems with things in the past and asked for help." And I actually thought that was quite humble of Jared to say so. If he'd quit bashing FAST for no reason at all...and stop spreading lies about stories he doesn't know about...I'd probably drop it. So...now you're clowned, again. Fat? C'mon, you can do better than that? I promise you this...you ever make your way out of the cowboy state (Hmmm...brokeback mountain...now I see where they got their inspiration, you two....)...c'mon over to Michigan. Not only will I bust your ass at the track AND at the dunes... I will smack you and make you this fat man's bitch faster than you can say "FUCK...I sure am S.L.O.W." Since you're getting a little agitated and angry...who's bitch and who's pawn are you now? Thought so..... And by the way...here's what I think of both of your tuning abilities.... http://www.planetsand.com/forums/ubbthread..._twister#UNREAD

The rider and setup is way more than half of it....a skilled rider will know how to use and apply the power... I'm not taking anything away from your victories..but if you're racing guys that are losing because of the wheelie, there are more skilled riders out there..

Instead of buying a single pingle valve with two outlets, someone just drilled a hole in a stock gas tank and added a second stock fuel valve. Cheaper for sure....those pingles are expensive. My only concern is forgetting to turn one of them on.... No issues with that otherwise.

My point exactly...it'll be fucked up sooner or later.

I strongly disagree...depending on the length of the race, surface, rider weight, skill, etc. IMO and experience, once you get past the bolt on stage for both bikes (pipes, filters, head, for the shee and pipe, air filter, cam for the poker) that's where the banshee shines. Once you dip into the motor for porting.... Mod for mod, bolt on vs. bolt on...the 450's have the clear advantage. Lighter and they start out with more HP and MUCH BETTER torque curve off the bat.

Ya see...now you're just running your mouth again. Where did I bash Firehead's work? THE ONLY THINGS I've said are you are going to take a perfectly good running bike...which, again...you didn't build, and are going to fuck it up. I've always liked Mark and respect his opinion. Can he be an arrogant SOB? Yep....and so can I. You keep ranting about running 80's up hill on that bike...when I said a well tuned 10 mil cub will too. Is that what you call bashing his work? I'm sure Mark did the right thing and he "retard tuned" it for you so it wouldn't blow up because you can't tune for shit. I've also said you didn't run the times you keep spouting off. You reply to me, how do I know you haven't...and then in the next paragraph you say yourself the times you quoted are from when he had the bike and times he ran. Does your whole FAST story have similar legs to stand on? Because if so...you've been called out twice here in the last few posts. For being flat out wrong and lying. Builders get bashed on PS? Really? Where? Do suspect numbers get called out? Yes. Builders bashed? WHERE???? By the way, is this HQ or PS? I guess I need to be reminded of that. If HQ is so bad...please..leave. Go to PS. You're already the laughing stock of this website....you think you'll last long over there? ha ha ha ha ha... I'm sure of all these folks you run into at the dunes...once they see what a clown you are, your opinion to them has as much weight as it does here. If you think you're a champ....hit a largely sanctioned event, Glamis on a holiday weekend...or the hill on a holiday weekend. It's easy to be the king of the hill when all that is there are court jesters....

Tony Dukas is a pretty respected name in this biz. However, I just don't like those pistons... I've always run and had good luck with Wisecos....

I agree. However...most of the fun we have is after the riding when the party starts and we sit and BS ...or BS between runs, track maintenance...etc. I still like to dune, blast around...and hit the trails. When I buy my girl a bike (read, my pit bike/second bike...lol) it'll have that in mind. Cruising around....

Gearing, tire size and engine build will determine your top speed. Mid 70s.... A bone stock one will EASILY top out in a quarter mile....it'll actually damn near top out at 1/8 mile with bone stock gearing/everything... Now..as far as how fast one can go... It'll go as fast as your wallet will take you.

Hmm...well, let's see...uh, YOU. Um...right here: I could give a shit less if you like FAST or not... The problem is you're running your mouth...and passing along second hand info to your butt buddy...who in turn is running his mouth about shit that isn't true. Maybe if you comprehended that...you'd be in better shape and possibly wouldn't be the laughing stock of HQ right now. Think before you shoot off your big fucking mouth.

I would say 21cc and you should be fine.

Put them on Craigslist. They will sell much faster than on forums... **EDIT** D'oh...nevermind. Already there. http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/mcy/966844604.html

I would get a Noss Head or a Chariot head. Both are site sponsors, both don't require longer head studs. It will give you a noticeable kick in the pants with a compression increase...

I want a 18mm DM wrapped in billet cases with a billet tranny and 10 disk matoon clutch. Throw a 50 shot of NOS on there, in a nice custom chassis... And please have Big Red or GregBJ assemble it and tune it for me...I wouldn't want the bike to be S.L.O.W....

C'mon...they were in the world series in 1984...and won. LOL... Hi Gregbj. It's cold here. I know my 10 mil is awesome....thanks. You're still a clown.

that link from 2001 stroker is broken...but compression ratio and timing dictate the need for more fuel. Not cranking compression (checked with a spark plug reader)... Unless you know your compression ratio...you are guessing...which can be overly safe or smoke a motor...

Agreed. While it's apart...measure it out to get your compression ratio. At 4 degrees timing advance...it would hardly change your octane requirements. But if your compression ratio is right at the ragged edge of pump gas vs. the need for more octane, the heat from a +4 could put you over the edge.
