  1. No one has metioned Jeff and FAST. I ran a poll a while ago and no one had anything bad to say about Jeff.
  2. That will get you into to more trouble. Our nation is slowly turning into a police state.
  3. I did that to my case. Matched them to the thickness of my cylinders. I had about 4mm wide of material. I couldn't get the base gasket to seal unless I applied yamabond to both sides of the gasket. Its not worth the risk of an air leak.
  4. Maybe a couple years down the road when they have the bugs worked out and the price comes down it may be the route to go.
  5. I believe stock is around 120~125 psi. If you have aftermarket head, domes or pistons then it can vary
  6. I'm going to get a set of cascades. Seems that is the more popular clamp.
  7. That's too bad that it doesn't work like everyone claims it does in the ads.
  8. Yes sir. I did my research when I went to do my exhaust. FMF Q series are the only muffs that meet the DB rating and have a forestry approved spark arrestor.
  9. Those muffs are not WI legal. Only the FMF Q series are.
  10. You want to be under 155psi cranking compression or 12:1 mechanical compression doing a fluid cc check.
  11. Is there a clamp that can be tightened on these. I sure doesn't look like it from the pics.
  12. Good price? http://shop.pitsterpro.com/cascadealuminumexhaustclampsprocircuit/fmffattypipe.aspx
  13. the o ring slip on ones looks like they would slip right off
  14. I was running high temp hose with hose clamps. I'd like to clean that up and make it look nicer. Any suggestions?
  15. I did two sets of DIY ported cylinders. I did this because I didn't have the funds to pay a professional at the time. I did a frame off resto so I spent tons of $ on it as it was. The first set I did I copied pics and vids of the race logic template. I didn't mess with the transfer ports or exhaust port timing. I brought the boost down and the intakes up and left about 3mm between them. They put out 58HP and was ride able on the trails. They lasted one season before the thin spot went missing. The second set I did I left the boost alone and raised the intakes to the roof. Bad idea. Made gobs of top end power but the bottom was horrific. I had a hard time just getting it out of first gear. Now I'm starting over with virgins and sending them to a professional. I'm done with the DIY home port job.
  16. Have you thought about what squish band you want? I've talked to a few builders and they like .040~.050 x 10mil~12mil wide.
  17. I see they now offer both front and rear. They make a decent clutch. I would expect they make a decent sprocket
  18. My current case doesn't leak. I'm having a builder do another motor with different cases and cylinders. Reusing the bottom end internals. I just want to know more about this mod.
  19. I usually install base gaskets dry with no sealant
  20. When I was taking with one of the engine builders he was taking about some of the case studs causing an air leak. What had to happen to fix this? I can't find any info on this mod.
