Original Riva dual carb intake being ported matched to carbs and Reeds by TJ
Brand new VF2's "being ported matched"
Riva Reed Spacer "being port matched"
Rebuilding the carbs with all new needles, seats, jets, springs etc.
ADA Girdled Heat at 185 PSI
Pro X pistons at .5mm over with custom pins "per TJ"
Dual cooling
Brand new Factory MOD pipe being extrude bored and port matched by TJ
Dave at Impros "Hooker prop" 11/17 pitch
Pro-tec Ride plate
Riva Top loader intake grate
Gell Battery
Modded stock CDI for increased Rev Limiter
Installing a second pulse line nipple

i would think about going up 1* on the pitch on top. i am running the same setup minus the porting and using the 11/17 hooker
also watch out for detonation with that high compression on pump gas, atleast with wot buoy chasing
i had to take mine back to 180 to be safe

you will have more speed with the riva intake but it won't hook up for **** in hard turns. worx 201 is what most of us use.

Lee....thanks for the heads up. I'll start looking for that intake and you think I'll need to have the pitch increased huh?

Okies....$160 for the grate....I'm a bit bummed however I need to ship this prop back to dave. I was hoping to get the pump done tomorrow night....

i would try the prop first it might be ok, it just depends on tj's porting. try it, if your rpm's are to high then up the pitch.

MikePeavler · 11-01-2009, 07:46 PM

Aye....I hope I'm impressed with the engine. I really hope this thing is wicked fast...I know it's no stroker....but it's all I can afford

depending on his porting, my flattop 785 version was only about 2 mph slower than my stroker. if you want wicked fast your gonna need a speedworx or octane dry pipe. either one is good for 500 rpm's over the b pipe. which equates to almost 5 mph
with the same motor

Hmm...just picked up this new MOD pipe too....although those pipes are a lot of work to work on, work with and maintaining them I would assume...

He told me you were his toy tester....he said you always got the cool "new" stuff so he got to try them out LOL

Do you mind sharing a picture of the pistons especially the pin location changes ?
I've heard a lot about people changing pin position but never seen one so I'm just curious.
If it's too much "builder's secret", no problem I understand... thank you

Stock location just running a lighter pin from a different engine
