nuc_welder Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Ok so I'm wanting to know should I get a 4 mill stroker crank, or just get an agressive port job? Mainly drag on paved road, with a little gravel road raceing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1996dragshee Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Port work for sure. What good is the crank when your cylinders arn't set up for it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 If your only doing one then a port job. A port job will give you more power than no port job and a 4 mill crank. Once you port your cylinders for the stock stroke you CANNOT have them reported for the 4 mill. So if your thinking of doing the 4 mill you should just save and do both.

I would not say that is 100% accurate...keeping in mind one builder's dune port is another's drag port, etc. But I would without a doubt talk to a builder who you're thinking about having port your cylinders for final say on that. Porting before the stroker, but they're best done in pairs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuc_welder Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) Well I seen some cylinders on ebay that I'm thinking about buying. They have extra boost ports cut in them, but they are for stock stroke. I want to keep up with my friend he's got a stroker with stock cylinders. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Acces...A1%7C240%3A1318 Edited January 13, 2009 by nuc_welder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brugal Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 If money aint a thing get the crank and the port ,like Daj. said its better to do both at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FASTOYS Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Be careful with those ebay cylinders as they look really cut up on the intake side and are .090 over so could be prone to breaking in the intake sleeve area. Definetly porting would produce bigger gains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me for package price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuc_welder Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Ok I think I'm going to both at the same time, my next question is would an aftermarket intake be noticable enough to be worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05.Banshee.SE Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Are you going to get the 115 rod? Don't get the shorter one...and run 795 pistons, tell them you are porting for use with a 4mil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheeqc Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 The ebay cylinder have not many bore left on them, and the risk of failure on the intake side are high because of the kind of port job... This cylinders are probably not your best bet... If you going with 4mill and ported, you probably need bigger carb (with pod and intake), cool head with cut dome, v-force or 2 stage carbon reed, and a good set of pipe. An another possibility for you it's a stock stroke cub (358 or 392cc). If you going this way, get your stock crank pinned and welded. This set up need also the same thing (carb,pipe,reed). Your stock head is bolt-on on the 358 and have to be machined to fit larger bore in the 392 (i think). Talk do a good builder like F.A.S.T. or HJR, : They know what they talk about! They are able to find the best setup for your kind of riding and with accordance with the amount of money you want to spend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
