Lounge / what did you do to your R today?

« on: July 19, 2013, 12:13:29 AM »

Still fighting ignition issues. It runs fine, I put the oem back in. It pulls the same times with the oem that it pulls with the CR, but I only use 2nd 3rd and 4th with the oem, I have to hit 5th right before the finishline with the CR. I think the CR spins it out with so much mid/top hit, and the traction (from lack of power) with the oem makes up the difference so the times stay the same. Paddles on the way tho!!

Body and Controls / Maier Pros and Cons

I have had two sets of the newer Maiers,one piece and two piece. No issues,fit good and look good too,much better than they used to be!

Yeah they have come a long long way from the old DROOPY EARS style!! Lol, used to have those too, looked like half melted polaris scrambler plastics!! But hey, back then there wasn't much choice. No internet back then!

Lounge / OEM Frame Color

Its not spray paint, but color code E4 on a Ford is close, and Chevy color code 9260. The chevy color is closer if your frame isnt faded.

I have spoken to Arlan, Neil, and bdt about set ups/porting, and was satisfied with the courtesy and info they all three provided. Now my questions are this, who would you guys suggest I have port my 330 cylinder for dirt drag?? (not just out of the three places above, but out of ANYBODY) And who to port my next build (puma) for drag?? And why?? I have always built my own engines so all this custom work is new to me, any and all advice would be appreciated!

Lounge / what is your alma mater..

Went into the ARMY in 93' and out in 96', (63 echo- M1 Abrams tank mechanic) then my dad and brother and I owned and ran a fertilizer spreading business (not manure!!) lol and a custom hay rolling business. My dad died in 07 so the business was never the same. Sold it, and and started a body shop with my cousin, he acted stupid with money so I then opened my own in March of this year!!

Engine and Bottom End / What to do with motor

« on: July 05, 2013, 09:13:45 PM »

CT porting is decent at best. 350 is a great cylinder to run around on. Had one for a while (CT) in a TRX I had. Was a blast to ride. Its a play motor, MX, Dunes, trails, etc...

Have a decent Honda builder work over the cylinder for porting and get yourself CR ign...this will wake it up.

I agree, I just put the CR ignition in my ESR 350 yesterday and it made a great deal more power and a lot wider/smoother curve.
