dozer Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Redline. Which motor did u go with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagunCajun Posted March 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Before i call up Redline for pricing for port work, let me make sure i'm not leaving anything out considering i never planned/researched after market jugs. From my research, i see i need this: please correct if i am wrong with a brief explination cub water plugs serval cub jugs pistons(for cub) Cub ARP head studs(10 of them) carbs(depends what builder says) head dome size(depends what builder says) I plan to go through the entire bottom end to check everything especially my shift works/bearings. So stuff like gaskets, orings etc arent on the list because that isnt cub specific. I will inquire with the builder what i need trying to project how much extra OT i have to work to save up for this.

Abe Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Redline serval port job is $250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 make sure to ask what gets ported and how, for whatever price. theres a big difference in a $250 port job and a $500 port job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha. Does it really matter what he does or charges if he produces the power that is claimed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abe Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 What u talkn about claimed sprinklerman. How about proof with consecutive dynos on diff serval engines in the upper 80s with no bottom end loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about proof with consecutive dynos on diff serval engines in the upper 80s with no bottom end loss. I guess claimed was the wrong word. "Claimed" could insinuate that the power may ,or may not be there. What i should have said was "Does it really matter what he does or charges if he produces the power that he says?

locogato11283 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 What u talkn about claimed sprinklerman. How about proof with consecutive dynos on diff serval engines in the upper 80s with no bottom end loss. I've seen one of Redline's Servals on the dyno personally. It was 85hp with an awesome curve. That was ported. That same exact motor and setup made right around 77hp before porting. This is a pump gas motor. These 4mm Servals aren't rocket science. They're doing exactly what they're supposed to do. I talked to Cameron last night about them. He said it's roughly 10hp from no porting to porting. As far as price is concerned, I don't know what Redline or anyone else charges and don't really care, but if you're getting an extra 10hp for $250-500 you're getting a good deal as far as I'm concerned.

locogato11283 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I also need to add that I rode a FAST 4mm Serval with a cleanup port at Nationals last year and it had tons of power everywhere. I ran the same 22" cut tires that I run on the 18DM with 15/41 gearing and it pulled them easily. I'm guessing that motor to make mid 70s for power.

RagunCajun Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 The dyno graph posted from a FAST customer in another thread showed loss of power and the bike would be slower. So I need more proof to give then my porting business. The Redline graph was amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've ridden a ton of different motors from stock cylinder stuff to 18DMs. If the combination of my testimony and the Redline dyno charts aren't enough "proof" then maybe all you're really doing is chasing a number and you may be one of those people who is never really happy with anything.

RagunCajun Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 I said Redline is getting my jugs for porting. Your testimony is partially why. Will I need billet bowl? I already have a dual pingal or whatever it's called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious as a comparison, have you ever had your 18dm dyno'd? what did it make? You would think there would be a huge difference between 18dm and 4m serval.
