The stock Raptor carbs are garbage compared to what comes on a YFZ. Just because aftermarket carbs make a big difference on the "70's technology" (Duncan Racing's description of the Raptor motor), that logic doesn't necessarily translate over to the 450. ...two totally different animals

The FCR on the YFZ is one of the top carb's made. Why bother putting a Edlebrock on it?

The stock Raptor carb's aren't bad when mod'd correctly, but dual fcr's definetly help over stock.

Call up Duncan Racing (866-379-7223) and tell them that you have a YFZ 450 and want to find out about using an Edelbrock carb. Ask to talk to Lenny if he is available. Ask him about the pros/cons of the Edelbrock vs. the FCR, and if you decide you want to buy one, Duncan sells them. I love my Edelbrock and will never switch. If you could, please tell them that Jarrod Hoops sent you.

Good Luck with your decision,

RR1
