Mods to stock intake?

[darren61462]

Has anyone successfully modified their stock intake for better airflow? I work in a machine shop and am going to get the flywheel lightened, carbs bored abd mod the stator plate.

 

Any other "poor boy" mods I miss?

 

thanks

Perfect.

 

exactly what I was looking for

You can do more than that.If your using a reed that is solid at the tip,you can grind about 3/16 out of the divider.This gives you more area to get fuel.

Will this mod give you a real noticable increase in performance?? I have the boysen 2 stage reeds in mine bike, and was thinking about going with the v-force, but it is a pricey option. Will this give similar gains? thanks

I did my reeds after seeing the roostfest site and it gave me a "seat of the pants" improvement, I was quite impressed.

Another mod you can do is deck your stock head .025-.030, I did mine witth CBN tooling on a resurfacer for a super smooth finish, you can also use a surface grinder. I also found the irrideum NGK spark plugs to work extreamly well.

Ans if you havn't changed your filter do that, and of course pipes are a must.

I did mine when I had the banshee down for a rebuid so it is hard to say how much I gained. I hogged out the reed cage on my sons blaster and it made a huge difference on his bike

Did you end up on the seat of your pant pants after this?

 

I haven't picked up a k&n but will have one soon.

I have FMF fatty's and good collection of jets to try when this is done.

I will be milling the head and porting and polishing the jugs this fall when I tear it down to the frame for powder coating.

 

thanks

I saw someone was selling some stock intakes modified to accept vforce reeds.

 

Were these what you meant or were the reeds all metal?
