I was at Trinity this morning asking about my quad, it should be done soon, I'll know tues. if it's to be stock or a 450.

Talked to Harry about his pipe, should be done this week, He already has the new map written for his pipe, should be awsome, all stainless steel construction.

Jeremy Schell quad has a new factory motor in it and is avalible, anti vibe stem, pep ZPS shocks all around, a-arms axle, all the good stuff.

Wish I could afford it at this point.

Later

As you know the Cannondale is a 432cc. They are supposed to have a 450cc aluminum nickle cyclinder and piston. Harry is working with Millium to get the sleeve and JE for the piston to make a 450cc Kit. This motor will also have some headwork done and a new map of course. We'll see.

Hey - keep us posted on that 450 kit. I still have my dale and if that kit works out it would be ALOT cheaper than us building another quad for a 450
thanks

Well there are several things to conceder one is depending on the sleeve they send the case might have to be split and opened up sor the bigger sleeve. Outside of that it's just a sleeve and piston, no biggy.

The sleeve just drops right out of the cylinder....so I'd guess it'd be hard to bore??? I don't think they'd have to split the cases and bore out the bottom end, you'd think there's plenty of room in there. Marcum's is also working on a 450 kit and some new cams. Nothing firm yet, but he's working on it.

I think you could really make the Dale sing with a larger piston, head work, some larger injectors, and some more aggressive cams. THAT would be a handfull!

My quads easy to find there, Up in the rack without a motor, It's the polished one. Harry said he had the map all worked out and the guy should be sending him the S/S stuff anyday.

Waiting Patiently
