unless you do all the other things like cams and carb ect.ect .
the 435 isent going to do you that much good and in no way better than a stock bore with drz kit , cams, good pipe and air intake .
the only way your going to get the 435 to wake up is to put on a carb and cams and ect. etc.

I'm not sure but does the ltz have a nikasil cylinder? If it does I'd go with a std bore high comp with the hot cams and jet accordingly. Probably a better bang for your buck then just a 435 kit.

If you really need to save for a car i'd suggest just enjoy what you have.

Other than that I agree with TRXRacer1's post even if it's not Nikasil'ed cylinder.
