Tore my engine apart yesterday to rebuild due to oil consumption.In my opinion it ran fine but needed rings.I had bought the quad this way and the guy gave me a new top end for it when I bought it.He said it needed it.It is the wiseco 11:1 kit .120 over or 88mm kit.The bore is stock and I am completely bummin that I am gonna bore the stock cyl to the max on the first rebuild,as a plan a long relationship with this quad and want to spend time working on making it better and not chasing problems that I installed.Is it stupid to use a 11:1 plus .120 piston that is free or should I spend the $$ and get a plus .040 10:1 or 11:1 piston this time around.I am very conservative when it comes to stuff like this because I have many other obligations that my $$ goes to,so when I spend I like to do it right the first time.I am even going to buy a oem honda xr 400 cam because I am worried about using the stage 2 cam I was given also.So will a 10:1 or 11:1 piston kit at .040 over and a xr 400 stock cam be worth doing or am I flippin for no reason??Please help!!If a 11:1 plus .040 will be super reliable and not wear out my crank or lower rod bearing I will use that.i await your opinions and thank all who do.:chinese:
