98bansheetwin Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Im looking to build a dependable motor for in my banshee. But i want to make as much power as i can without pushing it too hard. Currently my motor is: stock stroke welded crank, dune port, t5 pipes, vf2 reeds, +4 timing, 30oko carbs, wiseco pro lites, sitting at 64.50mm bore. Motor has about 80hrs on it from a full rebuild with new seals and all. To say the least, im not blown away with performance. So im looking for advice on where to go from here. Im ready to listen to everyones opinion. I have a pretty decent budget since this is going to be a all winter build. I ride trails, dirt roads, fields etc. I run big tires for ground clearence. (Fronts 23" rears 22") and i run pretty tall gearing for road riding because i wouldnt want to get smoked by a 450. (Gearing 15/41) Chassis: it has a +4 round style swingarm, rear rims fliped out, has recently installed +2+1 strong arm a arms, +2 steering stem with fat bars, works dual rate front shocks, and stock rear shock. It handles dang good. So im ready to handle some power. What do you guys think i need? Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie normus Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Stock head? Adding some compression will help. I would think the next step would be going to a 4mil setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do-work-son Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 10 mil super serval Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burke Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 rjdgriff had a shit ton of hours on his 4 mil Serval, and I'm sure he has plenty on his 10... I think the real reliability issues come into play when you start giving it a lot of compression and need race fuel. Stick to a good sized pump gas build and have fun 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tfaith08 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Send it to a site sponsor and tell them your goals. They'll make you more than happy. FWIW, 4mil serval is very likely going to be my next engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertR Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 I have a 4mil serval lasted me almost 4 years before I had to replace anything. There really fun motors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Definitely gonna advocate a 4mm serval on pump fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Any motor is only as reliable as the guy who assembled it. Attention to detail, cleaning rituals will depict a solid build 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebanshee98 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Good gas, safe tune. No air leaks, clean filters will keep engine life long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98bansheetwin Posted January 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Im thinking about going 4mil for now and then upgrade cylinders in the future. Can i have my cylinders re-ported for the 4 mill set up? Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tfaith08 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 Most times, yes. I know that Redline advertises that they do a ported stocker to ported 4mil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
