considering cool head


04chase

Recommended Posts

id like to get a little more power on my new banshee, basically stock with t5's k&n pods and reed spacer. it will be for mainly sand dunes and some dragging . i am at about 1200 ft elevation and i did a compression test and got 110/115 which isnt bad but not great. im wondering if i should go with a noss ch now or wait until summer to do some porting/hone and change rings( if its possible to reuse the stock pistons with just a hone . i plan to run 18cc domes with some 110 vp fuel. any advice?

get motor work before u get the head it only makes sense

Your compression isn't bad for your elevation. The regular domes will work with up to an .080 bore so the motor work won't require any change in the head/domes unless you decide to do a Cub motor or something. The head would still work but you would probably need different domes. 19cc domes might be a safer choice for a stock crank.

It sounds like your bout due for a rebuild as you should be around 120 range. I would recommend a cool head, v force, and timing plate as your gonna need them anyway when you start beefing it up. You could take advantage of some of the Holiday specials in the General section!
