remember that the lowest prices isnt always going to give you the best experiance... id say you should start calling around to builders and see who can help you figure out what it is you want. who will respond to your calls and not try to hurry you...

 

the motors are from cp industries...http://www.cpindinc.com/

i dont neccesarily want the cheapest prices... i want the best place to buy from.

 

arent all 485cc cheetah kits going to be the same, no matter where i buy it from?

 

so basically i want to hear from people who have these kits, and where they got them from to ascertain the best place to buy them...

 

who should i call? most builders dont even have them listed on their sites, they only have the cubs...

 

also, before i start calling around, what is the average price to pay for a complete kit? (ie cylinders, head pistons reeds intakes etc)

 

i will factor in the pipes and carbs myself.

 

thanks, mark.

What about that crazy ported RZ set up you just installed ??? :geek:

 

haha yeah it isnt even tuned properly yet and im already talkin about cheetah PVs!!

 

nah a friend is selling a roller with the works: laeger +2+1s, -1 laeger swinger, elka elites all round... i want to buy it off him and put a crazy motor in it.

 

originally wanted to build a 4mm RZ motor for it, because i have alot of RZ spares and know where i can get another set of barrels cheap, but now im thinking i might as well go all out with a cheetah!

 

i think i want a 485cc cheetah, with about 160psi compression so i can run 98 octane fuel, 35mm air strykers (already have these lyin around)

CPI in frames and +4 timing or even maybe mess around with a Dyna FS. (just try and copy an RZ map)

 

would i need big bore CPIs for 485cc??

 

also with the nikasil bore, what usually happens when you lean out a motor? can you hone the nikasil? or does it have to get recoated every time this happens?

 

what about when the rings/pistons just wear out?

 

thanks, mark

I would run CPI big bores. Cascade's web page says they are for 465 and larger bores.

 

With the nikasil you take and acid on a rag and wipe the aluminum that transfers to the cylinder. Unless you really gouge it up.
