AWD_XTC Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I see people talking about this and I see it on sites like trinity racing, so what exactly is the difference between say the trinity 421 Cheetah Engine Kit and the 421 cheetah cub engine kit?

jbooker82 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 I see people talking about this and I see it on sites like trinity racing, so what exactly is the difference between say the trinity 421 Cheetah Engine Kit and the 421 cheetah cub engine kit? The cheeta cub is exactly what it sounds like. The little brother to the Cheetah. The Cub is an aftermarket cylinder that is drag ported right out of the box. It uses banshee parts (Reeds, Head.) The Cheetah is a Power Valve block. It has a slide valve like the carburetor has in the exhaust port. As the rpm's increase the valve opeans up more and advances the exhaust port timing. It helps give you a better mid range. You have to use a Cheetah head, and it uses I THINK honda CR500 Reeds they are much larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWD_XTC Posted September 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Ok so how about the non cub strokers? Would one of those be good for other riding other than dunes or drag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BellicoseBanshee Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 A nicely ported stock cylinder engine with a 4mm crank (porting must match crank to realize maximum power) and the correct accompanying components will make good power...
