BoDo89 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 Hi guys, Im new on this forum and I want your opinions. Im a new banshee owner and my connecting rod just broke same for my right piston and cylinder. I have a 2001 banshee with fmf gold series pipe, cool end head, vforce3 reed, stock carbs, I was wondering if I buy a hotrod stroker +4mm crank assembly, can it fit with an athena big bore kit ?

bigweav81 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 Can it work? Yes, but not the best route to go. You already have Athena cylinders? If not go with a 4mil, and have your stockers ported. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Quote
BoDo89 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Report Posted August 25, 2016 By 4mil you mean the crank ? Quote
dankengineering Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 Yes, buy the 4mil crank and have your stock cylinders ported for your setup. Quote
bigweav81 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 By 4mil you mean the crank ?Yes. Do you have the athena kit already? You should check out driveline performance. They have better aftermarket cylinders for $100 more then the athena kit if I remember correctly. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Quote
BoDo89 Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) No i dont have the athena yet and i think ill get the assassin kit instead. Another question, might sound dumb tho, the ''+4mm'' does it stand for the timing ? Edited August 26, 2016 by BoDo89 Quote
bigweav81 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Posted August 26, 2016 No it means 4mil of extra stroke. +4 timing is 4 degrees of advanced timing. Call driveline, and talk to Lane, or Bill. They could get you lined out. Search, and learn. All the info you need is stored around here somewhere. Good luck. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Quote
sheerider11 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Posted August 26, 2016 Do some searching, you'll find more then you ever bargained for. You'll lose your wallet if you have no self control too. 1 Quote
bigweav81 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Posted August 26, 2016 What kind of riding do you do? What's your budget? Reason I ask is ported stockers could be all you need. That would leave extra monies to show your trans some love. Shit becomes an addiction rather quickly. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Quote
BoDo89 Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Posted August 26, 2016 Mostly trails but dune too. I was planning to save a bit in winter so by spring i would have all my stock. And yeah i think it will be an addiction prob ^^ Quote
Larry's Shee Posted August 29, 2016 Report Posted August 29, 2016 presume that because you're looking at cylinders you tore up your stockers ?? Driveline is still the best bang for the buck !! Odds are if you got a used set of stock cyls, they would still need to be bored, so figure $350+ for pistons and boring, plus $$ for cylinders , still monies ahead with DL. Quote
BoDo89 Posted August 29, 2016 Author Report Posted August 29, 2016 yeah my stocker are done. Im looking for big bore stroker and im pretty sure ill get those assassin bore ! Do you recommand them for some1 who does trail with some dunes ? I'll need to get new carbs for that, are the 38mm keihin a good fit ? Quote
bigweav81 Posted August 29, 2016 Report Posted August 29, 2016 Call driveline. They offer two versions, or custom porting I believe. If your riding tight trails I doubt you want 38mm carbs. Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk 1 Quote
BoDo89 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Posted August 30, 2016 Im from Canada, its kinda hard for me to call there :S Quote
bigweav81 Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Fuck......I knew it was rough over there, but the phone concept should've caught on by now. You obviously have internet......pm them on here? Sent from my SM-S820L using Tapatalk Quote
