At first I thought it was just a string of gasket material and I went to pick it out and sh*t , it's cracked . I'm just glad it was visible . So I'm thinking about 1 new piston or 2 ? It was recently bored and honed and has barely a break in on the motor so maybe I can get away with just a new piston and rings , but well see

Heres some pics of the intake , the shee has no shocks on the front yet so the front is sitting on the frame , hence the angle of the intake .
Looking good, man! I'm liking that 2-into-1 intake. I've never seen one quite like that before... Who makes it? It looks like you could just about bolt a Briggs and Stratton carburetor directly to that flange. Lol. But seriously, I know its not a Trinity or Graydon Proline... ??

Wow, never woulda guessed. I'm assuming they didn't make too many (or they didn't work too well). First one I've seen.
Holy Hell its been awhile , been doing projects around the house to get it ready to sell. I pressure washed all day yesterday ( 8 hours ) and today I switched gears and jumped on the Shee ( so to speak ) . Heres how its lookin as of today .
Next up is a good power wash , cut and grind un-needed tabs and wire wheel rust spots . Then it will get a light sanding to rough up the factory coating and start with a epoxy based primer . Haven't 100% decided yet what color to do , Still kicking around ideas .

Thanks bro , I always wanted to do a full frame resto on the Blaster too , I did a partial . My Blaster was a mess when I first got it , and I was in a hurry to get it up and running for some dune trips. This time I can Take it down to the frame with the shee and do it all .
OK , I've been busy getting the banshee project up to speed . I have stripped it to the frame and have been stripping the factory paint off as well . Frame is almost done , and will be painted pretty soon . The weather has gotten better here so i have primed and painted a few parts . I have decided on a Black and Chrome scheme , kinda murdered out doing the flat black . I'm using krylon fusion paint , and the flat black looks sick ! . I'm going to add a few splashes of red , like the radiator grill , and the brake calipers .
My goal is to get it back to a rolling chassis before september , so that means front shocks ( looking for yfz's ) and a +4 Swingarm . So far heres how some parts have come out .
well thats it , more to come soon . going top strip the powdercoat off the lower a arms and tie rod ends tomorrow .
