WALLACE84 Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 I found an L.A sleeve 409 mono block kit on ebay with obviously cylinders, head with domes,and pistons,rings,and gaskets. Does anybody run these? or know anyone who does? On the L.A sleeve website they retail for $1950 and the kit on ebay (also new) is going for $1200 buy it now. Thanks in advance -Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance-Dan A cub costs 875 from jeff at fast racing. Have it cleanded up and run the cool head and other parts that you already have on your stock cylinders, and you will have a 10X better engine.

Thanks in advance-Dan i was going to buy one ,it seems like a good deal ,i went with the 421 cheetah cub .the monoblock only comes in standard stroke height so if you wanted to stroke it you would have to use spacer or cut domes . i havent seen one on a bike anywhere .as cheap as they are you would think they would be everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to agree, I rode his banshee with that 409 mono block, it sucked. Plus I thank you have to use 250r reed cages. Very big waist of money. Cub all the way. I got a cub and I have never been happier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireHead Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 You don't see too many of those kits around any more. Every once in awhile you see a used on on eBay. I only rode one bike that had the kit in it, and it ran pretty hard, but I think it had a longer stroke cranks and some other stuff done to it as well. I know the person who owned the bike paid some one to do all the work. I think the kit is one of those deals where only a few talented people could ever get them to work. :shrug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
