JMadd has been around an engine or two..haha. I wouldn't have a problem taking advice from him..especially if it'd help me run the times he does!

Whats sooo funny is, even with all this ^^^ Ive yet to see an overseas "tuner" come to the states and make a name,,or even be competitive in the race scene ( speaking strictly Banshees, since this is a banshee based site).
I dont get it. A guy comes on here asking about his banshee right? Your basic reply discredits a post on another forum that delves into the question at hand. Then to try and qualify what you said, instead of producing relevant data from the so called "foremost experts" that applies to the guys question, you allude to the rsa cyl, then post a picture of a overseas cyl design that didnt even make it to production? I think itd be nice if one of these " formost tuners" you speak of could take the ancient designs our builders are forced to work with ( banshee based cyls and cases) and produce similar results...won't happen. Know why? They are spoiled so to speak by starting out with newer technology and not saddled with what banshee builders are. But that does NOT make them "foremost" as you put it. Turn them loose on a banshee based engine (that IS what this forum is about after all) and see what results when comparing them to the builders stateside. The difference is that the stateside builders have years of real world R& D . Sent from my SCH-R970 using Tapatalk
This qoute is what I was referring to. Those HP to CC ratios just arent possible in a N/A banshee based engine format....due to the constraints of the oem designed layout. ..but if you can show me an overseas builder doing that, I'll be the first to take back what I said.
It doesnt relate "across the board" in regards to comparing a (factory) race teams R& D team, who can design an engine from scratch and dictate every specification, to a builder here in the US who is limited to a banshee based engine, where certain things cannot be changed.

Its only fair to mention that factory teams have the luxury of designing from scratch. ..cases, trans style and layout, all of it. So its only fair to keep the context of this discussion strictly about banshee based engines.

Unless your current carbs are shot for some reason, id keep the stockers. If you are having to buy carbs anyway...PWK.

Make sure you remove that little half moon retainer clip behind the clutch basket...then throw it away. If its all the way apart, a light tap with a rubber mallet should make them easily split.

So not to oversimplify, but the reason the pipes stick out like that is because of not modifying the frame and possibly using a narrower radiator?

Don't you find it annoying for the pipes to lay out to the sides like that?
I noticed that if you take some more time you can end up with results like Wacko2000 did in his conversion here> http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=170461&page=1
Not knocking your project, I'm just wondering why you have your pipes splayed out VS tucking the pipes in tight like Wacko2000 did?
