ShamRok Posted March 14, 2006 Author Report Posted March 14, 2006 ok thanks guys i need the power my friends yfz450 still gets me in the drag and i need the power so this is the next step for me Quote
DIRTMAN350 Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 Noss for sure. Talk with dave he will hook you up. Install went simple. No stud changing. make sure that you get the orings in the right spots and use good grease to hold them in place. Noss head is the best head iI have seen. Latter. Quote
ogre03 Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 I run a Noss head too, and I think they are great. What mods do you have now? If you are looking for a way to increase your peformance so that you can beat your buddy, there may be better options. Like porting. Also, traction plays a big part with a shee. If you can't get traction, you will lose. And above all, practice. There is no replacement for experience. Quote
Chemical Castration Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 NOSS heads kick major ass, you definitely wouldnt go wrong with em. I'm gonna be running an RKT head, they're a bit expensive, but they're also totally custom, and really hard to beat. Just click the link below to check em out. www.2strokeheads.com Quote
ShamRok Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Posted March 16, 2006 as far as mods now i have port, polish, bored .020 over, forged pistons, fmf fatties with turbine core 2 silencers, boost bottle, timing plate advanced 4 deg, and i am running holeshot hd's in the rear with xc's in the front, oh and i have been running 14-41 gearing but am switching to 13-41, we drag all the time and i can get him in the long run but he has a lot done to his yfz too i can beat my cousins suzuki 450 and of course stomp his predator, and even beat most other 450's to but i have problems with that just that friend Quote
ellison445 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 Who did your porting and what type of porting is it? What size carbs are you running? as far as mods now i have port, polish, bored .020 over, forged pistons, fmf fatties with turbine core 2 silencers, boost bottle, timing plate advanced 4 deg, and i am running holeshot hd's in the rear with xc's in the front, oh and i have been running 14-41 gearing but am switching to 13-41, we drag all the time and i can get him in the long run but he has a lot done to his yfz too i can beat my cousins suzuki 450 and of course stomp his predator, and even beat most other 450's to but i have problems with that just that friend 487578[/snapback] Quote
ShamRok Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Posted March 16, 2006 stock carbs but dialed in great, and i don't know who did the port job i bought the engine off e-bay after blowing mine up at silver lake Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 If you change your gearing from 14/41 to 13/41, you are gonna have an even harder time getting traction. You will just spin even more, and get beat worse, by the 450. Just my .02. Quote
ogre03 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 What he said^. If you are riding in the dirt, you don't want to go to a 13. I run a 15 on the front for dirt. To start with I'd try running him on the pavement if you can. That will solve the shee's traction issues. Quote
ShamRok Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Posted March 16, 2006 we almost always run on pavement when we drag, and even on dirt those hd's hookup pretty d@mn good its not like he kills me he gets me by about 2 to 3 quad lengths until i hit the top end then i have about 5mph on him Quote
