What else would be good to do?

[DemonShee]

I have been thinking, yes I know thats dangerous, my wife is scared, but i need to know a few things. While I have this motor apart doing the 4 mil stroker conversion, what else would be good upgrades to do? I am looking for mods that would help with reliability and logevity of life along with more HP.

 

I am for sure going to get the adjustable timing plate. I am also thinking lightening the flywheel and a billet high flow impeller. Anything else I should consider that wont break the bank?

You can case match the cylinders since you have the upper case off as well as the jugs. This will give a smooth transition on the ports between the cylinders and crankcase, helps keep fuel/air velocity up. Just use the cylinder base gasket as a template, and scribe around the inside of the jugs and case where the meet. Any metal not covered by the gasket can be removed with a burr-head bit on a die grinder or dremel tool. I got a special base gasket from Twister Performance that is real minimal width, allowing much bigger openings thru the case and jugs. After the case matching, I noticed a decent improvement across the whole power band, feels like 2 or 3 hp.

Max load or TZ bearing for your crank. Shift star mod. Hinson basket and pressure plate. New steels and fibers, heavier springs etc.. Some things to think about. Max load or TZ would be a must in my book.

Porting helps ALOT.

I guess I should have listed what I already have.

 

The crank is trued and welded and has the Tz bearing installed.

 

Redline Racing Dune/Play porting.

 

+4 swingarm

 

 

 

Case matching the cylinders sounds easy enough.

 

I been going to check the cylinders for exaust polishing but havent yet, if not I will do that as well.

 

I will contact Jeff at Fast about his clutches, they seam to have a very good reputation for lasting.

 

Can someone tell me more about the shift star mod?
