400rednEX Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 about how much will it cost for porting, new wiseco prolites, and boring for my banshee cylinders. everything looks to be in good shape. the mo better everywhere porting looks good by the description, is that what most people get? almost all the shee's riding is at silver lake dunes but i don't want to lose much low end for trails around here. is cutting down the head for more compression for porting necessary or just recommended. i also thought about advancing the timing 4 degrees too, is there anything wrong with the vito's keys?

BigRed350x Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 (edited) Gorr woods port is what I have. Runs awesome. Good power all around. Paid $250 You can see it run if you download any of my vids in the video section. Edited January 13, 2006 by BigRed350x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
400rednEX Posted January 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 since i run mostly sand i thought the midrange mo better everywhere port would be better. do you know if all his ports are the same price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 DO NOT get the Vito's Key... Go to Ricky Stator's site, get the adjustable timing plate. It's 35 bucks plus shipping. Timing keys can shear...a plate won't. Plus...you have that adjustability for future mods, all the way from -10 to +10 degrees of timing....it's a no brainer. Get your flywheel lightened while you're at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I was just thinking about this the other day. The HQ goes through fads. This time last year all everybody could talk about was Eric Gorr. Year before that it was PassionRE. Nowadays its F.A.S.T. My opinion is Gorr knows his shit. I wouldn't hesitate sending my engine to him. (FYI I'm not running any porting by the above mentioned 3 builders, I went with a local builder here in SoCal that I trust.)

400rednEX Posted January 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 there is really a problem with the advance keys shearing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 That's a good point...wallrat. I'm sending my motor to FAST soon. I'm not sure if he builds the fastest engines...in fact, I think someone here in MI does, A&S...maybe? However, I saw JT's bike run at Silver Lake, Jeff did that bike. And, I've spoken to Jeff on the phone a few times. Seeing a bike of his run, and his customer service has got me sold. He is just flat out a helluva nice guy. His pricing is right on par, too. That being said...I've never read anything bad about Gorr's work. I was originally thinking of Gorr before I talked with Jeff, and Jeff had nothing but good things to say about him, too. Call a few builders, talk to them...and see what kind of pricing and comfort level they give you, and make your choice!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FASTOYS Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Yes, get the plate . Most good shops stock them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Is there a problem? Tough question. A stock key will hold up better, period. Why limit yourself to a key when you can have a quality part that will not fail and you have adjustability. I mean...how much is a key? 10 bucks or so? What's an extra few bucks for insurance and adjustability? You're pulling the flywhee either way. It's two screws and three 10mm bolts to remove and replace the stator plate...

Wallrat Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 there is really a problem with the advance keys shearing? 458732[/snapback] I ran mine for 2 years with no problems. But when I changed my stator to a 200w I went ahead and got the timing plate too. If nothing else but for piece of mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIRST BANSHEE Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 about how much will it cost for porting, new wiseco prolites, and boring for my banshee cylinders. everything looks to be in good shape. the mo better everywhere porting looks good by the description, is that what most people get? almost all the shee's riding is at silver lake dunes but i don't want to lose much low end for trails around here. is cutting down the head for more compression for porting necessary or just recommended. i also thought about advancing the timing 4 degrees too, is there anything wrong with the vito's keys? 458699[/snapback] I got the mo power everywhere port it's awesome. starts pulling sooner, revs higher,and pulls harder throughout. port was $250, pistons $150 i think, $25 a hole to bore. call and talk to him the guys awesome. compression and timing will help your bottom end. to much comp or timing will hurt yout top end. ricky stator plate is only $35 flywheel and shiftstar by boonman is about $100 awesome mods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 porting, boring and pistons is about 400 from gorr. that porting is really good for the money. FAST also does a good job on porting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee tuner Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I've been running a vito's key for over 4 years and have not had a problem, if you go over 50 horses I would not advise it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I've had a buddy snap two off in his Raptor...granted, fourstroke, heavier flywheel..etc. However... If he has pipes, a good port job and has it tuned right, he should be very close if not at the 50HP figure (again, depends on pipes, other mods, port job, etc.) I don't know if the RS plate was available two years, or ever 4 years ago...however, it is now, I got mine early last year, I wouldn't even think about getting a key... Especially since you can't adjust a key....the plate you can. It's really a no brainer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianEb Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Who has the contact info on Jeff and his engine work in Michigan. Because I live in Michigan. So say yes to Michigan. Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
