no progress til Jan 28th! I am ordering some more parts and then sending the crank out to be balanced then!
decided against picking up the Blaster, and probably against the LT250R too

yeah i love the quadracers. can't find a decent LT500 around here, but would like to get a clean LT250R too!
we'll see what happens. i might buy one and slow down the blaster project again lol.
small update:
after more consideration, I am going to be gusseting the frame completely, taking the frame to my uncle's work to sandblast it down completely then welding up the gussets. after all this, powercoat time(most likely going with the same blue color that it's painted now.)
found a spare WR500 engine, and if its still there in two weeks i'm gonna snatch that up as well

do still have the 82-83 490 jug and head, piston, etc.. but we are going to be using it on the actual 82 YZ490 my uncle owns.
the head need some serious machining, tons of nicks in it from when the piston grenaded lol
thanks a lot man
well this is getting delayed!
picking up a LT500R on Saturday! full ride report coming Sunday.
things I already know about it:
-has twist throttle, getting removed ASAP
-plastics are beaten up, gonna get White Maiers most likely
-Jerry Hall Ported Cylinder and Machined Head
-guy claims its scary fast
-mike
