Can't wait to put the motor in. Should have it very soon. Have to get my power pros custom- But I can taste success!!
Thanks! I think it would be too much black, however black, silver- Where the two choices that I liked. I was going to do green same as the springs but, liked the way the metallic silver looked, next time it's gonna be metallic green, I'll get some paint made at the auto shop and bust out the gravity feed gun. I just rattle canned it this time.
looking great man, i rocked a silver frame last year I:I I:I. you have really turned that beast around keep it up. I:I
I used some leftover ramp material I had from my trailer build.
Thanks bro!
Well the day finally came and got my Motor back from Ken. This biotch is Fukin Bad ASS! I will do a full review when I get it up and running soon and smoke AWK! Oh sh*t is that a call out???! Anyhoo- here's a couple pics of the Intake and Exhaust work that will assist me in leavin some mofo's in the dust!!An no, I am not taking the head of for show, remember that is my secret recipe!
well since you replyed in my rebuild ill do the same lol looking nice what paint did you use for the motor i think i need someof that lol
Well the covers got metallic silver and black all rustoleum. Primered fiirst of course. The case is just cleaned up with steel wool and brass brush, and Ken painted the head and cylinder black.
Latest addition- thanks Holeshotman!
no prob man glad you like it! dam this thing is comming right along, sweet colors.
how hard was it to take the springs off if you had good spring compressors? i wanna do mine now after seeing yours I:I
The fronts were piece of cake. The rear was a Mo fo even with coil spring compressor. Not a lot of room. But I'm gonna copy what Norm420 made- it looks to work perfect.
Thanks bro, I decided to put the outerwares on instead of the aluminum top should give even more flow! If i find too much debri or H20 getting in then I'll switch back to the lid.
Exhaust is due to come in todayI:I, Hoping I can at least bolt up the motor and exhaust- have to wait for my reed spacer as my 30mm carb bowl is hitting the clutch leverX(. Another expense not budgeted. I am hoping that the 150 main and 42.5 pilot will be a good start on jetting, I have a few others on the up side so we'll see. I have a few odds ends to get, like plug- i haven't decided what kind to get, It came with a b9 NGK but that isn't the right one i know. I'm gonna get a six pack of whatever i decide on so I can do the plug chops I want it perfect!-Bob
you can tilt the carb a little to avoid the arm, thats what im doing now. i started out with a 155 main and 48 pilot on mine so you should be good. the lid should be no problem, i run no lid at all and only occasionaly find a drop of mud or water on the filter.
