Stock is always more reliable than any size over bore

A stock engine will always be more reliable than anything that is modified. But with proper care and maintaince a modded engine will last a long time. ;)

you will see a diffence with just the cam and the piston will amp that motor a liittle more. you would have to run 94 or a 50/50 mix thought.

come on, of coarse it would be more reliable doing it yourself with wrenches out in your garage with a six pack. i mean honda dont care to make it reliable, they only have a trained team and a MULTI BILLION $ plant!!! "hey doc, do you think i should leave my brain alone or tinker with it a little?" :eek:

this is what happens when pre teens are allowed to do what ever they want.....somptins gonna break.
dont worry bout keeping up with the raptor just make him turn a few times you'll get him.
