You guys like the IMS 440?

[RUFIO]

· Kit includes an 89mm piston kit, big bore sleeve as well as the head
and base gasket
· 11:1 compression ratio
· Engine displacement is increased to 440cc
· Professional bore and sleeve installation is required


After this kit goes in....do i NEED to get anything else? besides bigger jets..such as bigger carb ect.

240.00

Be careful about that kit, lots of people have had problems. You won't get 11:1 without some machine work if it's Wiseco, and I've heard that the bottom of the sleeve is prone to cracking because it's tapered to allow installation without boring the case halves. You will be better off, IMO, if you do a 416, or have the 440 done right (straight sleeve, JE/Ross piston, bore case). Do a search for "have you decked the cylinder", lots of good info there.

If i put in a JE/Ross Piston, with gaskets, what else will need to go in to increase the displacment, and how much does it cost to build?

About $300-$350 for a 87mm (416cc) JE piston kit, gasket set w/metal head gasket (don't use the fiber head gasket), and cylinder boring. While you're at it, you might as well throw down an extra $120 for a Stage 2 Hotcam.
