  1. you can run pump gas in your cub, wont be as snappy in deep sand or whatnot race gas will wake it up a good bit, or even better try some methanol... depending on what you want to do with your cub, keep in mind a lot of timing and compression will make it run a lot warmer too.
  2. my experience ordering and using chariot products has been wonderful
  3. id keep those 35's, have jeffrey set em up for your methanoll and get rid of those t-5's for some CPIs. that should be a fun little motor on alcohol.... i had pretty much same motor on gas with 33's and cpis and it ran very well. a pingle might not be a bad idea and drill out the vent in your gas cap as well. no downsides to using methanol IMO. if you keep up with your maintenance, purging any remainding methanol iside your engine is just one more maintenance item.
  4. dg, is your buddy evan still cutting transmissions? i'm still using the one i got from him in my dragster and its a better operating trans than the wcr in my play bike.
  5. you will not gain any power. what you are doing is making your gearing shorter where the engine wont have to work as hard. increase acceleration, decrease top end speed.
  6. you should not have any problems with stock, oem components, as i also have my cdi mounted right next to the coil on both of my banshees. no problems here. i think where you get interference is with the hotter aftermarket coils.
  7. you will gain either way with the cpi's or shearers from the t-5's. i would go cpi's not because they have "more midrange and bottom end" what i liked about them on my play bike is they come on sooner and were a bit easier to get back on the pipe if i let off the go button. and they flat out had more all over than the t-5's i had.
  8. not if it's set up right..........
  9. the one i just put together is an "out of the box" cylinder, really fun little motor. it has mid/low 170ish psi cranking compression. some 39's will give you more power all over, at least they did on my motor... if you are having traction issues, sort those out first.
  10. my experience with the cub cylinders, they like lots of fuel. 39pwks, +7 timing, race gas and let her eat. get tired of that, convert over to methanol. that stuff is way more awesome than race fuel.
  11. i have put some threebond on (2) of my intakes between the boots and intake to seal up leaks. dont see why it would be a problem. now, i can see where using a sealant that is not impervious to gasoline would be a problem.
  12. There is a small spring that fits in behind the air screws. Check to make sure its there. Chances are, the screw fell out and so did the spring.
  13. I used a 175 in my drag bike when it was on gas. Im also using a 175 in this new motor I just built and it seems to like it as well.
  14. You should notice an increase or decrease in rpm at idle while adjusting your airscrews. If not, you may have trash in your pilot jet or the wrong size. Good luck....
  15. Your main sounds small. Might want to up it if you are running long distances or in real deep sand. I have the same pilot as you, i think 1.5 turns out on the air screws. Mine is a little rich though. Sync your carbs and set your idle and you can fine tune your airscrews from there. I would say you get to 3/4 ~ 1/2 turn out, go to the next size up. Past 2.5 turns out, go the next size down.
  16. i used a high end wheel bearing grease, pack the inside of the seals.
  17. A lock up is a device that keeps your clutch from slipping at higher rpms. It "locks it up." The slingshot is a type of lock up device. I have both styles and like each for different reasons.
  18. That's pretty apparent in this thread and all the others similar to it......
  19. Really? I used to have a '06 700r that would hand pretty much any bolt on banshee it's ass all day long. All it had was a PC3, barkers and an intake. Just sayin'.
  20. they hold the engine cases together..... there is a hole above in the middle of the cases, you most likely have something leaking thru there.... what kind of liquid?
  21. unscrew the existing adjusters on your existing carb tops and put the longer ones in. I had to install a set of these to be able to adjust the slides to where they would open all the way. I ran out of adjustment with the shorter adjusters and the oem throttle.
  22. You need to save up your money. lol adding +5 long rods to your existing crank will not net you a +4mil stroker. all you will be doing is lengthing the rods. you have to purchase a dedicated stroker crankshaft for whatever added stroke. you dont need several grand to do a 4mil. fuck that spacer plate shit, port your cylinders and cut some domes for the 4mil.
