Looks about the going rate.. Most of the builders I've dealt with port with plating but to each their own.

 

I thought you didn't like DM's?

not for me.....and if i was going to build another motor it would not be a 10 mil

I understand, I just thought that you'd talk your friend out of the DM if you didn't like them is all. No biggie.

i been telling my buddy to do a super cub, but he really wants a dm so if he wants it he should build it.i wouldn't mind riding one.....and yeah i have spoken to other builders that port with the nikasil but for some reason lynn doesn't.....my buddy is going to get started on his project in january.so we will see what happens.

so a none plated dm at 750 or 800 should be a good deal right...cylinders only

An unplated DM is about 900 but that is not where the cost is substantial over the cub stuff the cost of the case work and peripherals to support it is where the DM cost grows over the cub stuff. On top of the fact if he already has a head reeds, intakes, ect... which none will work on the DM. But the DM power is amazing :)

Out of those choices...I would go 10 mil cub or 10 mil DM.

If you're going to do case boring and trenching (super cub) to the rest of the route and get a DM.

yeah his going dm so we will see what happens.......

He knows that the case work alone for the DM is around 1k right? The DM build is a bottomless pit of money. The cost to build the DM is WELL over 5k not including clutch componets. Just some food for thought. They always look better on paper then all the lil shit starts to add up and bite you in the ass after you alraedy got rid of sweet running motor.. :sad:
