bluev8s10blazer Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 im looking to get a little more power. ive got cpi pipes, v-force 3 reeds, single k&n filter, coolhead 20cc domes. im going to do some porting work but not right away. i was thinking of getting some carbs. would i gain anything from carbs without getting any port work done? and if so what would be a good size to go with??

sheefreak Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Not really. Porting is the way to go if you want a dramatic increase. Timing also makes quite a difference. The only problem is you would be pushing the envelope if you are not already running race fuel. If you want to go w/a little larger carb, no bigger than 30's w/o any port work. Quote
jbooker82 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Since your banshee isnt ported those CPI's are probably not performing the best. CPI's are not really designed for a stock ported engine. Get it ported and that will be the night and day difference your looking for. Bigger carbs will only make your shee even a bigger dog with those pipes and stock porting. josh Quote
baddsheee Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Another vote for porting. I'm running a dune port with stock carbs. Satisfied with it for now. Quote

gipperz Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 well where would be a good place to have the port work done? and how long does it usually take I would do a little research on builders, there are plenty around and see who gives you the best customer service, prices and turn around time. Talk to him and see what kind of port work you need. My props go to Jeff at F.A.S.T. cause he built my motor and it hauls the mail but I'm sure there are others out there to. Try a search on porting and see what you get. Best of luck to you. :beer: Quote
jbooker82 Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 It all depends on how buisy the builder is. there are lots of good people to do porting, all depends on how much you want to spend. jeff at farm and sand toys http://www.farmandsandtoys.com Passion Racing http://www.passionracingengines.com K&T http://www.ktperformance.com/store.asp Dan at A&S Racing These are just a few. josh Quote
