donkeypuncher Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 if money isnt an issue then without a doubt i would say go with the 4mill. odds are if you just port your stock cylinders you will get the "need for speed" and wish you would have just gone 4mill to begin with.....atleast thats what happend to me. now that i have ported cylinders im wishing i would have just saved my money and skipped right to a 4mill. hit up Kevin @ herr jugs racing (HJR), he'll hook you up!

I'm happy with my ported stock cylinders, but wish I just did the 4mil from the beginning too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 just build the 4mm and be done with it. you will regret wasting the time and money on a stock stroke bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00tbanshee Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 i'm with loco on this one.don't waste your time and money with porting for a stock crank because your going to want to go bigger later.once you do a nice port job for a stock crank your cylinders are pretty much done for if you decide to go with a 4mil later.get a aggressive dune port 4mil and a set of 35pwk's.you wil be happy for awhile.you can also get a set of domes cut for a noss head.

00tbanshee Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 you can buy a after market head like noss and have a set of domes cut or you can just have your stock head cut for a 4mil.i did a stock head cut when i ran a 4mil stock cylinder and it worked great.the clutch,you can just go with one of jeff's from fast and a set of heavy springs.you also have to run a different set of pistons.i would have it ported so you don't have to run a spaacer plate,which all the good builder out there will do that.

RagunCajun Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Stock carbs worked like a champ on my 4 mil. Dont think you NEED bigger carbs. port the juggs. 4mil set ups get expensive real fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming Yellow Zonker Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I was sucking the stock carbs dry with my 4mm setup. IMO stock carbs are for stock bikes. A 4mm is nice but a 4mm with a good set of carbs and a good port job is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
