Im back ....... w/some questions

[nowukno]

I haven't posted on here for a very long time but i've just been really busy with work. Im looking for more power out of my quad. I was hoping to keep it kinda cheap , so i was think about a new piston. I already have a 13:1 , what would be the next best thing? 13:5:1? 14:1? What brand? etc. I have no problem with running race gas. I haven't been on in forever so here is a couple pics of my bike. Thanks in advance.

you could get a baldwin piston, which is a 14:1 compression, and with all your current mods, id suggest porting as well.

my buddy just put in the new stage 3 hot cam, he says it adds power everywhere
he took out his baldwin 14:1 and put in a 13.5:1

A baldwin 14:1 should be a nice improvement, not only for compression, but it's a 2 ring piston vs the 3 ring you're running now.

i would send your head in to drg to get done up all nice. he also has a 15:1 piston you might wanna take a look at

hey i ave a question for nowukno...how do you like your C&D rebuilds...are they a good deal?

[chad502ex]

porting is the most reliable power you can buy- since there is no moving parts involved..


The power is in the head, but an awesome DRG piston only exemplifies the situation.....:macho

Thanks Blood for your shout!

Think i could get port , K&W spring kit , 3 angle valve job , valves , piston + labor for under $800?
