kawiking Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 there is alot of great builders out there, u should call and talk to some. word of mouth is good, but i like to talk to a builder direct and see what kind of portig they recommend. with that, u need to know what kind of carbs and pipes are best for "their" port job. i used jeff at f.a.s.t. on my 4 mil cub motor. jeffs a very cool cat to deal with, and helped me set my bike up to full potential.

deckheight Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) There are a lot of competent 2-stroke tuners out there that nobody on this site has ever heard of. And a lot more hacks as well! The big names on this site have earned good reputations, rightfully so, with something that has repeatedly been proven to work. Exhaust and transfer ports can be made to function efficiently at whatever rpm needed or requested by the customer (within reason of course)... In other words, rather than piping to the port... Port to the pipe... Or port to whatever is required to make peak horsepower at a specific RPM. there is alot of great builders out there, u should call and talk to some. word of mouth is good, but i like to talk to a builder direct and see what kind of portig they recommend. with that, u need to know what kind of carbs and pipes are best for "their" port job. i used jeff at f.a.s.t. on my 4 mil cub motor. jeffs a very cool cat to deal with, and helped me set my bike up to full potential.

Tim Potteiger Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 I agree with needing to do your homework first. From my experience, most people want a port job for a big pretty dyno number. The engine builder starts grinding away raising the exhaust port, opening the intakes, etc, and you end up with a motor that has 0 bottom end, but screams so hard from 8000rpm up. Great for drag racing, but if you like to trail ride and just dune, do your homework first so you don't end up with some wild 80hp+ motor that is not dune-able.

mopar1rules Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) that's the worst port job i've ever seen. my work ain't even close to that. i think ray charles held the cylinder, while stevie wonder ran the grinder, and then some stoned random drunk guy, ran/adjusedt the speed/rpm of the grinder......lol. :biggrin: whoever did that port job, should just be shot.

locogato11283 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 that's because no one gives me the chance....its always kevin herr, passion, etc. if you really want to get business here are two things id do.. 1. support the site. become at least a premium member. guys on here are loyal to people who help the site. FAST, NOSS, M&M etc... they have tons of repeat buyers. 2. port someones cylinders for FREE. yes i said it.. FREE. someone out there needs something done. offer to do it.. if you do a good job, the word of mouth will be well worth the time you spent porting those cylinders for free.

Snopczynski Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I would do it for an amount to just cover the stone bits and sanding discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
