sheerider1026 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 the guy we have here is pretty much just into race engines for cars.. i know that 2 strokes have tighter piston/cylinder tolerances, think i should take it there?? was thinking about letting passion do them.. not sure. how much is a topend kit??

My brother had his top end ported and bored, by http://herrjugsracing.com/ The work was top of the line and he had it back very quickly. I just sent my motor there this week for a full build and have nothing but good things to say about the customer service. Kevin has taken a lot of time to make sure that every aspect is covered. Just my $0.02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 not being nosey, but would did it all cost you? topend kit, boring, and porting?? if i did go ported it would be a woods port or a dune port, i just want more power everywhere with losing bottom end, actually would want to gain more bottom and top end, not sure which port job would give me those results.. ? any info?

Machining a bore for a forged piston is relatively the same in any engine. Plus, you might get to learn something. I would recommend asking to see the shop as to determine that the work won't be done on a drill press with a homemade boring bar............. :geek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
