What Type Of Carbs

one of the local bike shops told me to stick with my stock ones or maybe go to the 28 PWK by Keihins.  Any info would be appreciated.

the stock ones are 26's......I'd go with Mikuni 34's or Kehin PWK 35's...... 4mm needs more velosity then a 350 does, T-5 like bigger carbs anyways.....if your going to switch to CPI's then get the 34's. CPI's like smaller carbs.

If your stroker was set-up properly the PJ34 Keihin's are just killer on that engine and very affordable. Be sure to get the proper manifold to adapt them or your giving up a tad of what you paid for aka VOLUME...Jim

I was told that going as large as 34/35's is to much carb and you just end up fouling plugs and causing other problems. I appreciate all the info, I just Don't want to end up buying 10 different sets of carbs and spending fistfuls of cash that can go towards other mods

 

Thanks,

Dan

are you sure you mean a stroker crank and not a longrod crank with 4mm longer rods in your signature?

Ok, I am going to show my banshee ignorance here but isn't that what my signature says " 4 mil long rod"?? Please don't take this as being rude, and I would appreciate an explanation between the dirrerence of a 4 mil long rod and a 4 mil stroker....... :unsure::(

 

This is my first banshee so I am still learning about these awesome machines.

4mm (or any #) stroker crank increases the stroke, or how far the piston travels, therefore increasing displacement (cc's) as well as bringing in a bigger volume of intake and breathing out a bit more exhuast. a stroker crank makes a lot more torque and overall power.

 

A longrod crank has longer rods then stock. Usually they just say longrod crank, not 4mm long rod crank, because all longrod cranks are equal in rod increasement. a longrod crank increases reliability by decreasing the rod angle on each bearing. you may also get alittle more torque but nothing to go wild about.

 

Usually when people say 4mm or 4mil crank they mean a stroker crank, or 5mm, 10mm , 7mm etc.

By saying longrod that is enough info since all longrods are created equal and people will take that as, you have a crank with the longer rods.

And by saying 4mm longrod, most will take it as a 4mm stroker crank with longrods.

 

And if I had your bike I would put on pwk30s. you can go bigger on carbs but there is certain point that an engine doesnt want anymore gas. i would say your safe to run anything from 30s to 34s depending on how you want it to run, all around good or for dragging and need everything you can get up top.

 

hope i filled you in some
