Guest WICKED ATV Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 Is the 4mill super cub package on rdz a good deal or not? It comes with a cylinder, crank, head and domes, pistons, gaskets. info please Quote
majicmike Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 If you did your research on the super cub then you know about the case work. RDZ is the best place to get the super cub becuase he ports them and does not leave the messed up transfers. Plus if you have him build it he will get it back to you quickly :thumbsup: Quote
locogato11283 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 what you plannin to do with this motor? best bang for the buck is the 4mm cub motor.. Quote
dajogejr Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 In my opinion....the supercub is not worth it. You're going to spend more money on it...and after you spend even more money to get it ported correctly...it's still a few HP and a few Ft. LBs of torque better than a standard old, run of the mill 68mm cub. RDZ's own website only reports a few HP and Ft. Lbs. on the dyno...less than 5HP and 2.1 Ft. LBS of torque...and that is with EXTENSIVE porting done on it by Rob. http://www.rdzracing.com/pictures/72super_cub_68cub_2.jpg 1275 for the cylinder itself, already ported. You can get a cleaned up cub for 900 all day long, if not a few bucks cheaper. For almost 400 bucks more...I'd rather pay someone to port a cub than a super. Hell...you can buy a 4 mil hot rods crank brand new for just over 400 bucks....plus you can use your stock head or cool head on the cub, with the right domes. You have to buy an all new head for the super... I've read from Several sources and builders that out of the box...the cubs perform better than the super. Now...that's not to say down the road someone won't have a bulb light up and make the Super Cub better...but IMO, as of right now...I can't justify all the extra expense for a few HP or torque, you can make that up by taking a healthy shit before you race... Mike...I know this subject is near and dear to your heart for several reasons...but until the Super becomes a viable option at a fair price...I just can't see someone spending the extra money for no reason....

badassbanshee479 Posted May 8, 2007 Report Posted May 8, 2007 if you have to machine the cases and buy a different head, you misewell buy a big cheetah. It has the bigger intakes that can feed the bigger bore. Quote
