ssbanshee Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 ok jim has my motor right now i am getting a 12 port 4mil stroker. My question is right now i have fmf fattys i see that everyone gets cpi`s or rockets when they get there motor. i jump alot and run around on some trail and some mx tracks. So i gusse my question is does this motor pull hard enough on the bottom to make up for the pipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oilsmoke Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 (edited) I have a 12 port stroker with Shearer Pipes. There is a pretty good spread choices. I think your fattys would have KILLER lowend and Midrange power. I would wait and test them out before a Spent Money. Jetted right Jim 12port stroker isSTRONG Edit Jetted right and Jims motor and high rpm style pipes like the shearer still pull hard on the lower half of the powerband but if it's not ..... I don't think you need a Top end pipe for mx or trails, Now Open terrian is another story. Edited July 18, 2004 by Oilsmoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minkia38 Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 im sending Jim a set of Rocket Pipes this week - hes gonna try em out on the dyno with his work.... Loco didnt seem to dislike them though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 i think you should try your pipes first and see how you like it. i had my t5's on before i got my rockets and they were really restrictive. i like how it runs much better with rockets. if you are looking for a ton of low end i dont think you should have gotten this port job. mine doesnt pull too bad down low, but it really shines on top. its jetted in perfectly and all, but it does not compare on bottom to my brothers woods port.

sredish Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 i think you should try your pipes first and see how you like it. I agree. While Rockets are becoming known as killer pipes as well, I'd wait to see how your fatties respond. Fatties are known to be great pipes that just get better the deeper your mods go, and I'd be interested to see how they perform with that motor. Nonetheless, you have them now, before you drop more bills on pipes, might as well see how they work before you shitcan them. Rockets seem to be some awesome pipes, and I wouldn't mind having a set.

Oilsmoke Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Sredish I have question on jetting for you. I been trying to get my pilots right. But i have mix signals or I am Not as smart as I need to be. What does cracklin mean at 1/8 or less. Rich or lean? My Shee has 34mm Artic Cat roundslides on it and they had 35's pilots in them. I now have 30's. When i put the 30 in and set at 2 turn out it ran Ok until it got hot than it started to cracklin. at 3/4 in It started before it got warmed up almost.

If it's getting worse when you lean the airscrew, then it sounds like it's emphasizing the existing condition. Honestly, I don't really know what "cracklin" means? Is it popping or small backfiring? Both of those would lead me to believe it's a little lean at first. Are you having to choke it when it's cold and warm to start it? Later bro.

Oilsmoke Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 It got worse screwed in. and better screwed out. But the plugs will get black at low speed crusie . Example. Rideing back to camp in the 5 mph zone 1/2 mile long. it does this cracklin type poping sound Not very loud tho. I will test the range next week. I am at a 30 pilot and i bought 27.5 and have 32.5 to I will test them Sunday I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Bad Banshee Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 If you have a stroker motor CPI pipes are the only way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
