CAJUN BANSHEE Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 Hey fellas, needing info on the most popular intakes being used on the 421 cubs. I'm building mine on meth with 40mm lectrons and drag ported by k&t, intakes are the only thing I need to complete the build. Thanks for any info. Quote
zach45 Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 V force seem to be the most popular... I have no exp with a cub or meth... But I have had them on my stock jug bike forever and they still look great... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
zach45 Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 Oh. And I have separate billet intakes with the crossover epoxied shut... I bought them second hand, and believe fast did them.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
CAJUN BANSHEE Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Posted May 24, 2012 I have vf3, was looking for a billet intake that looks and perfoms well. 2 piece that is. Quote
zach45 Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 I think there all the same, a long as the boots are quality. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

CAJUN BANSHEE Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Posted May 24, 2012 Clean motors yall, I also had pro design on my stk cyl, I just might go back with them. Quote
shanYE west Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 I think there all the same, a long as the boots are quality. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This isn't true. The intakes need to properly match the reed cages.. Some intakes use round opening.. others use square. Best intake in my opinion is the chariots. They offer intakes to perfectly match their ages as well as VF2 and VF3 cages. They also use genuine mikuni boots. Quote

rjatv Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 I recomend UPP, they are one peice which eliminates the chance of an air leak, and they actually vibrate less which means more stable fuel flow. Quote
CAJUN BANSHEE Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Posted May 27, 2012 Chariot is pulling my attention, theyre throwing some trick shit. Quote
Nightmare Posted May 27, 2012 Report Posted May 27, 2012 The chariots are great, I run them on both my banshees but their might be something better for your set up. Quote
shanYE west Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 I recomend UPP, they are one peice which eliminates the chance of an air leak, and they actually vibrate less which means more stable fuel flow. I prefer the billets over the UPP. With the clamp on filters attached to the carbs.. they liked to bounce. This was even worse with longer filters.. i didn't like that.. I liked the more solid mount with billet intakes and the sturdy mikuni boots. I've used UPP, BOSS, WK, Pro-Design and Chariots. Chariots are my choice. . I've never had a problem with fuel flow.

RadarRacing Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 Upp are good but they can break down over time and or tear causing leaks. They also dont space the carbs up keeping them off the clutch arm. Not a huge problem on a cub but even a regular bowl will rub the arm and stock cyls its worse. Billet bowls can be even worse. I have had both. Quote
