Okay I have a 2005 400ex with a HMF sport series slipon. what other mods should I get. I dont want to race just keep up with the 450's. Should I get a big bore kit. I would like to get the 416 big bore kit but I really have no idea what to look for. Could someone please tell me all the things I will need to get to make that big bore kit work the best and also where I could find them.
Sorry for all the question but any help will be appreciated. one more thing.. When you get a big bore kit should you use a different carburator like the edlebrock?

best would prolly be big bore kit. to run with the 450s, you definately need the power. 450 carb is a great step up to with the correct jetting.
