forrest411 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 How much can you bump up the compression before needing to weld the stock crank? Thanks Quote
special06shee Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 Id say it would be a good thing to weld the crank regaudless of compression!! But on one of my old setups i had 155psi and the crank started to separate rather quickly.. The crank did have pretty many hours on it tho before i bumped the compression! Quote
lms1977 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 I would say weld it also but.. I had 190psi in my old setup and ran is for a while never had a problem... although I was always worried about it I just figured if it went I would go with a bigger crank so it would be a win win for me either way!!!

bansheesandrider Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 My crank came apart with nothing more done to the motor than a set of pipes- stock timing and compression. The motor was less than 1.5 years old from brand new. Welding the crank is the first thing I do to any Banshee I own now. Quote
