ZachBreck Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 05 Shee LE, FMF's, Pro Flow with K&N, FMF Boost (probably worthless), and thats about it other then 290 mains. I am ready to step up the power but where do I go next, I am assuming reeds but I want more than that. I ride alot of State Parks in Ohio for the hill climbs, do some drags, and ride MX when I get a chance. I am looking for a little more top but I would really love some low end fow the hills. Any suggetions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys. Quote

There is a fella at Walden that has a 7mil, its not the fastest dragger, but it is a low end monster. Quote
letsgetthisdone Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 sell your FMF pipes and get PT mids. raisew the compression to suit how much you are willing to spend on fuel (race or pump gas..), good mx port job, and a 4 mil stroker crank. the 7 mil stroker crank will be WAY expensive. The stroker crank isn't neccassary, but it will help. Quote
ZachBreck Posted June 19, 2007 Author Report Posted June 19, 2007 Thanks for all the help fellas, again I am still kinda new at this, can you guys give me a rough estimate of roughly the crank and port will cost, I just want to get an estimate. Thanks again guys. Quote
letsgetthisdone Posted June 20, 2007 Report Posted June 20, 2007 port job: ~$250 4 mil crank (trued and welded): prolly close to $500 PT mids: $800 for chrome (with silencers), $620 for bare finish (with silecers) coolhead w/ domes: $250 pistons: $120 bore/hone: $100 all seals and gaskets: ~$90 stronger clutch: $100 single carb (optional): ~$350 for a used one on ebay, $500 new if you want a 7 mil crank it will be close to a $1000 for the crank i beleive, and i think its around $100 to have the cases trenched so the crank will fit. And it'll prolly cost more for the port work if you get the 7 mil crank, cuz the cylinders will need A LOT more work to get the port timings back to where they should be.. and if you're not comfortable taking your apart and putting it back together, that runs another $200-$300.

The stroker crank isn't neccassary, but it will help. That is simply not true... If you shop around a little you can get the 7mm for very little more then the 4mm. Quote

Dude... holy shit. $1000 dollars for the crank?!!?! They are not near that. Closer to $550-$600 Quote
letsgetthisdone Posted June 20, 2007 Report Posted June 20, 2007 where, i've only seen them for $800-$1000 Quote
letsgetthisdone Posted June 20, 2007 Report Posted June 20, 2007 the cheapest one on ebay right now is $700 "buy it now", and the guy claims he hasn't used it... Quote
theshee Posted June 20, 2007 Report Posted June 20, 2007 Call some builders, they will beat that price. Quote
