Ok so here's a question for you motorheads. I want to start going into the motor and do a little work. I know I want to go with an 11:1 compression ratio with an upgraded piston and some headword. But my question is what kind of webb cam and how much head work is too much for trail riding and some drag racing? Obviously upgraded springs and rockers are required im just not sure which cam to get.

go with the 290, ill hook u up, it works well even with the lower compression and will make some great Hp with a good head port

DL could you pm me with some pricing for the porting and cam its gona be a little while before I start this, around a month or two but I want to go ahead and get some info on this.

I say you just buy my motor :lol:

Thanks Jody, Im ready for a little more kick under the seat.

Mike if I had 2500 bucks just laying around you could bet I would do it.

I am in the same predicament.
I do XC , Ovals and everything inbetween , All need differant motor builds. Eric said he might build something for the trails , I am hoping it will have low end grunt and rev to the moon. It's a big hope but kinda finding worth waiting for.

sent a pm///


Baxter, its all about the porting and cam and how well you balance the combination

a Great head can support High rpm power without losing in the low/ mid rpm

 

[Baxter]

How about if I wanted to run a +3 crank ?

 

[jfdanie2]

Thanks daniel im looking forward to getting it done. If I stay at 11:1 I should be ok on pump gas shouldn't I? Race fuel is hard to find around my area.

Yeah pump gas will be ok.

The cam i made will pull more tq than the 290

same HP? Whats the price?

same HP? Whats the price?

Should pull more hp as well the 290is peaky all the charts i have seen it rises and falls my cam should pull more everywhere or even in a few spots but produce a much better overall curve
I have not tested them back to back though

 

[jfdanie2]

Yes what is the price?

 

[EHSRACING]

275 i have 1 on shelf and more getting made requires springs if you are getting a new head would wait for the new springs i have they are good for. 500 lift the std kibbles for xx aren't really supposed to be pushing. 440 lift even though everybody is using them

Not trying to call you out but, where is the proof. Mike's sb/ss build with the 290 made over 50ft tq.

Where is the proof it won't i have had a couple 290 here before i know what they do we don't need to go down the dyno hp debate dyno numbers are useless compared one to another it requires back to back testing

 

[boost addict]

You said it will pull more tq, so i guess you don't no yet? I guess you are switching to the pcv also?

Whats the lift on the 290's?
