  1. I use Wilburn ignitions and know nothing about the stuff your looking for but I know someone who has a brand new coil and set of wires so I contacted him for you. He told me it was 3ohm coil and that it would burn out a stock ignition and could only be used with a Dyna CDI box???
  2. I run aluminum flywheels torqued to 40ft lbs max or they'll wedge on way to tight. On re-assembly I use two small drops of blue locktite. Glad you found that it wasn't a blown motor since most guy's new to alcohol will at the very least take out a piston during the "learning curve".
  3. Nope, 4mil crank will swing just fine in factory cases.
  4. Agree, LOTS of thought, time and effort in that puppy. Well done!
  5. It doesn't take a big motor to break one. The one we "learned" on was a little 358 cub. Since going to billet back in 2006 we've never once had another break.
  6. We had that issue with our asphalt bike. Second gear is one of the weak links in a Banshee tranny. A billet second gear will stop the breakage problem.
  7. I didn't have any problem with the Air-Strikers on our first asphalt bike but I never heard of them in a 39mm.
  8. He doesn't know we're going and as of today he's got some changes about to happen that I should let him tell you about. His bike's still in pieces. That's the weekend before our Michigan trip.
  9. Friday August 22 Test & Tune - Saturday and Sunday the 23rd and 24th is the Geezer show
  10. Should look me up at the Geezer event in August. The wife and I will both be running our Banshees.
  11. Might consider asphalt since you have Mid America Motorplex in your backyard trx510r. Link: http://www.midamericamotorplex.com/2006/rt_default.asp Once a year we drive 850 miles one way from Ohio to race there.
  12. We bracket race asphalt and have the benefit of seeing performance changes from our ET slips. Because of home delivery convenience we've run more VP than anything but have used others though the years. Most methanol is just plain old 99.95% pure methanol alcohol and because of that we've not seen any one that's faster than another. I say go with whatever is easiest to get in your area and has the best price. If you stick with a reputable brand like VP, Torco, Renegade etc you'll be OK. What I've found is that a sealed pail or drum from any of the brand names will likely be fresh and 100% uncontaminated. Only twice have I ever got lousy fuel. Once from Ashland Oil that many of the local dirt track racers use (just didn't run well). Donated over a half a drum to our home track to use as "wash" alcohol. And once from a Sunoco distributor who filled from bulk that had a bunch of particles in the bottom of my can. FYI - VP steel drums are lined and if kept sealed and off the floor your fuel will last a LONG time.
  13. My favorite is: Ricks Tinker Shop Rick Carrol Cut to length For asphalt: RK MXZ none O-ring is the only way to go IMO On my wifes small drag ported asphalt bike we've had no issues with the EK chain sold by FAST (HQ Sponcor).
  14. Nice write-up Is it drag ported stock cylinders or cubs and 21cc domes?
  15. I had a well known builder tell me that the windows were there to aid wrist pin lubrication.
  16. Nothing wrong with that. Like Builder said - Just a casting flaw. The ones in that area often go into the bottom of the reed bolt hole.
  17. Standard off the shelf Pro Design. Very nice condition. No pits or damage. I'm going out of town until late Wed so won't get back to you until then if you need more info or pictures.
  18. I have a nice single undamaged 19cc standard dome. $20.00 shipped
  19. I agree with hercalmighty. We ran 1/4 mile asphalt with 35mm Airstrikers on a 358 gas cub @ 1200ft. With heavily oxygenated VP CMP we were at 162 or 165 mains and 42 or 45 pilots. Stock needle As hercalmighty said, The airscrew adjustment will tell you if the pilot is in the ballpark. Hope this helps...
  20. Let's see a picture from the bottom and inside the cyl. Like Zilla said, The intakes aren't touched.
