I'm starting a 2.0 build and I have set of idf 40's but I don't know if they'll keep up. It's going to have the biggest cylinders and pistons I can buy in it with a knife edged and balanced crank, port and polished heads, big cam... Blah blah blah. I have a set of IDF 40s and I am wondering if they will be able to keep up. Any help would be appreciated.

That was exactly what i was looking for, thanks so much! I may steer clear of a stroker crank but larger pistons and cylinders is the plan along with flowed heads and a healthy cam, its looking like 44s will be the plan. are DCOE's worth trying? Im a pretty big watercooled fan and a lot of the watercooled racers who run carbs use DCOE's.
twin plug heads!? my father made his own dual plug heads for an old triumph 650/750 hybrid drag bike he built in the 70's and it works wonders for that bikes power band, was it hard (relatively speaking)? the historic class in Rally America is pretty loose about engine mods and dual plug heads would be pretty beneficial for rally i think. |
