If I was going to lay down the cash for a new carb on my 400ex what one should I get..? And why…? Or is the HP gain not worth the cash..? Here is the list of mods it has so far…

Wiseco 416 Piston Kit 11:1
Complete gasket Kit
Web Racing Cam
Hardened Rocker Set
Titanium valve spring kit
black diamond intake valves
larger exhaust valves
sub rockers
cam chain
cam chain adjuster
cam chain guide
forged connecting rod
6 degree offset key way
ported head
bored cylinder

Thanks, Wade

I would go with the FCR carb.Are you required to have the hard faced rockers for that web cam?If not expect premature wear on the cam and rocker arms.What are sub rockers?I have also not heard of anything good about the timing advance keys.

Yes you are... Anyway I bought the quad like this... I haven't even seen it yet (see current location). Working on upgrades right now...
