What is with the Serval Cat?


Recommended Posts

I rebuilt my motor about a year ago and I dont remember any mention about Serval Cats then....Obviously is a monoblock cylinder but what really makes em tick? What is the advantage over porting stock cylinders, which I did? Post away!

And have a mean looking block head? :P

 

I already read that thread...some good info in there but not what I was looking for. Why was it developed? What are the gains vs stock, and more importantly, the gains vs stock ported?

everything you just mentioned can be found in the search including a link with dyno numbers just by searching "serval".

 

it does seem to have some growing pains though.

simply put the serval is NOT a drag motor its NOT going to make your bike a bolt on drag bike like a cub..

 

i try to sell that motor to the people that i deal with that want a good DUNE motor OR a strong TRAIL motor and want big bore and their stock cylinders are trashed.. with out the proper pipes and set up its going to be a turd but really what would you EXPECT out of a low port timing motor like that? it has its place in the atv world.. unlike the 421 not just anyone is going to be able to slap one together and make 90+hp. these are for a certain crowd. when my 421 ss motor has issues with the cylinder these are what will go on it. its NOT a drag bike. its NOT extended.. its a RIDER!!..

 

i mean with proper set up it makes 75-80hp on pump gas and decent TQ thats a FUN motor to RIDE>
