Hi Dave, thanks for the input.
I have a Stage3 cam from lancer - but I will not put that in until I can have a proper
head...
valve job
I have two carbs on hand, one is the OEM carb wghich was cleaned up and tuned courtesy of Lancer
the other is a Mikuni BST40 also "hmmm'd" "oooh'd"and "aaah'd" by Lancer
I have a 5"dia x 2" thick K&N air filter with 2" dia. plumbing to the carb, already running. A little hesitation when cold under 3000 rpm, but once warm it's a beauty.
The point is the engine will rev and pull like a banshee from 3000 to 5000.
I believe she (and I) is entitled to revving to 6000 - if not a little more.
Also, I can scrape the pegs and keep up with the 300-400cc scooters, but Silverwings and TMaxes...
Still... overtaking WideGlide Harleys on the outside and revving away ... priceless !
