thegroup Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 with my tax return, im thinking about kicking the banshee up to a stroker (already need to rebuild the top end) my question is do i need to get new domes (currently running pro design cool head with 18cc domes) for my cool head to run the crank and the 796 pistons?

fastbanshee8 Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 If you run your stock cylinders with a +4 stroker, +5 longrod crank, you will need the 795 series pistons, because of the longer rods, and you will need to get a set of cut domes, for the +4 crank. If you just run a +4 crank, you will still need a set of domes cut. Quote
WALLACE84 Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 Motosport Outlet has some mod quad 4mm domes that will fit a pd coolhead for a decent price. Check them out Quote
dajogejr Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 You will need a few things...depending on which way you go. You will at least need 795 series pistons for the long rod. You can run a spacer plate OR get domes cut for the longer stroke. Not many fans of spacer plates, just one more place to leak. That being said...if you get domes cut for the longer stroke, you need to get the motor's porting/timings changed to work well with the stroker motor.... Call Jeff @ FAST, he'll give you straight answers and good pricing as well. www.farmandsandtoys.com Or... 785-364-5325 Quote
theshee Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 Yep, Dajogejr nailed it. I wouldnt use the plate system, just another thing to go bad. :thumbsup: Quote
thegroup Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Posted February 2, 2007 thats the pistons i meant 795 :shoothead: , thats blows about the domes. i was hoping that running the 795 pistons that i wouldnt have to get the domes cut. ive been checking Motosport, F.A.S.T. and Hot Rods website to get some prices Quote
Animalman294 Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 Just get the new domes and sell the old ones................ Quote
dajogejr Posted February 3, 2007 Report Posted February 3, 2007 Someone can very easily cut the domes you have. Hell...PM Bigred350X, he might do it for you... Plenty others on here will as well. Quote
paulnyw Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 Someone can very easily cut the domes you have.Hell...PM Bigred350X, he might do it for you... Plenty others on here will as well. what about if i run a + 4 crank with stock length rods? do i just need to have the domes cut or do i need the pistons to?? Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 what about if i run a + 4 crank with stock length rods? do i just need to have the domes cut or do i need the pistons to?? Even if you run stock length rods, you will still have to get your domes cut, but you can run the stock style pistons. You will be better off, with the +5 longer rods, because it helps with the reliability. Your parts will last longer with the longer rods. If you're going to put the stroker crank in, just go ahead and get the +5 longer rods while you're at it. It may cost you a little more now, but it should save you $, in the long run. PM Fastoys on here, and he can tell you everything that you need to know. Quote
