Anyone out there running after Raptor carberators

 

great pics. Could you add some of your a-arms???

 

Edelbrock is working on a QwikSilver carb for the Raptor.

 

I have worked with the Edelbrock carb on a 400ex and, in my opinion, it is a no go.

Bikeworx has a single carb set up that seems to run fine. However, in my tests, the single provides more bottom end torque but less top end hp or rpm.

On the duals, for the money, just refine teh stock CV's. Powroll, CT, Trinity and a few other shops have made manifolds to run the Kehin FCR's (35-39mm) but the cost, improper fit and lack of any real benefit makes it a possible no go. Remember, the head only flows about 280cfm max on the intake. Your stock CV's easily flow that amount. The big FCR's are dificult to tune and, as I discovered, require a major time to get the jets and needles correct. Besides, even the 35mm FCR's flow substantially more than your cylinder head. The problem with the over flow is that you will loose air speed and torque for the slight top end hp gain.

 

I'm looking for a set of stock carbs because I'm going to have my carbs modified for the turbo kit.That way I can take of my turbo off and run my stock setup when I do some tight trail riding,sometimes we go though alot of water and turbos dont like water lol.
