I rather build it myself instead of sending it out to a builder, its my toy so its not really to serious atm. Im not really interested in dyno #'s or trying to have the baddest 350 out. I just want to know what porter knows their 350s best. I don't mind leaving some power on the table with stock carbs, inframes and just av gas.
lol why is it half ass? My friend had a similar setup that ran 4 years without a rebuild. He bored it over, stock crank unwelded ported cylinders by a local guy named Lachy (or how ever you spell it) and the bike went through like 3 frames and setups consistently went 98-105 between the laydown and stand up setups and the 98 mph trap in 1/4 was with a 230lb rider. It had an over ride though 1-4. If i tear it down a crank, over ride etc is going in it. BTW got plenty of friends with fast bikes with stock trans's.
We don't really do any "trail riding" or probably what most consider trail riding anyways. We just ride long distances and are far from the truck/gas station. Being that off the top of my dome there are only 2 places that sell av gas that i know of. I would have to buy a shit load of av gas get a 6 pack rack and bring a 1/2 gallon tank with me. Put it this way, running would be less of a hassle than av gas atm.
Thanks again guys.
