Ok folks this will more than likely be a question youve heard many times. I want to build a 440 but I have not the slightest idea where to begin. I know I need the kit and thats about it. I see these kits for like $219 in the magazines but I know there's more to it than just the kit. I can turn a wrench and read instructions so I think I can handle the job but I need some sound advise on what kit to get, what cam, and any extras they don't tell you about. My buddys all have yamahas so they don't know much about the EX. One guy told me he'd do the kit, cam and head work for $1000 including parts. I'd still like to do it myself. Any recomendations for what kits and machine work are needed would be great.
