most of the time just rippen around the dunes about 40 percent drag at the dunes so its one after another with little rest in between i do have a temp gauge so i do watch the temp .
i have a 521 cpi pipes 39pwks and run 110 race gas at 7 degrees i was wondering how far you can go and what are signs you went to far?i was thinking 9 degrees.
if you are racing someone you should start in second gear its much faster due to first gear being so short. sounds like you have a great build :thumbsup: . i have not made up my mind who will port my super cub yet earthier kevin or jeff from fast thanks for the feed back
if you have the $$ than it sounds like a good plan i would probably go with a cub instead :thumbsup: you may want a +2 or +4 swinger any longer and it will corner like a Lincoln continental or caddy also an impeller and or high volume radiator you will get hot on those long fire roads .
thats my .02
i can see here i'm getting bashed for suggesting 10 paddles. I'm speaking from experience when i called skat trak to buy mine i wanted 12 paddle they wouldn't sell them to me with a ported 380. against my better judgment i bought 10 paddles they worked good until i added more mods and now I'm looking for more tire.i don't like wasting money
any body who would put a supercharger and other mods on a daily driver (v10) is not likely to leave a banshee alone because he does not have to drive it home he will be looking for more tire in the near future.
hay badass do you have a pic of that shock? i think i might go that route. i see they have two styles on ebay one with the rezy going sideways and the other going up and down.
i would buy a banshee that already has a 4m or bigger crank in it and then add to it from there . i agree about doing it yourself but if you are just dragging you will get your chance soon enough to add to or rebuild it. :thumbsup:
i got beat by one with my 521 by 1 and 1/2 lenghts but i had 10p haulers on it, all i did was spin tell 4th gear. i would also get reeds and a +4 timming and you should be in the ball park :thumbsup:
i just thought of something, if this is your first banshee you may be shifting too early, its a common of new banshee owners. most of a banshees power is at the top end. a quick gear change would make it easyer to keep the rpms
i would say in this order
1. remove tors if it is still on there
2. dune port by a pro (or someone who knows what they are doing)
3.air cleaner
4. timing +4
get used to it and later get the head and new pipes :thumbsup:
if this is your first banshee take your time because after these mods it starts getting expensive
the hottest i seen was 220 after draging sevearl times in a row with out a break. i would not shut it off when it gets hot i would drive around low rpm to get air through the radiator it cools down faster that way
