I bought a 400 carb from talonhawk and Mike Chero told me exactly how to jet it to run on my Trailblazer. I could not believe the difference the bigger carb made in performance. Granted it is not a flatside carb but WOW what a difference. I gained more low end (it already has tons) and about 4mph on the top end. My Trailblazer before the carb would have a top speed of 62-63mph. It is now at around 67mph. So anyone thinking about a 400 carb on thier Trailblazer, go for it. It works awsome!!!! I can easily keep up with a 400 Scrammy now. Not bad for a heavy, little 250.

Thanks again Mike and Jim.

 

2manytoys,

Mike is a good guy. There are a lot of good people in these forums who will really go out of their way to help.

Glad to hear Mike helped you out.

 

Yes i know. I have talked to many people that have helped me out from day 1 when i got my Trailblazer. I have made alot of mistakes but with the help of others i now have a kick a$$ bike. Hopefully i can help out new people now with all the knowledge that i have gained. Thanks Bubba 297, Modquad, Talonhawk, Mike Chero and Rick Ritter. BTW, ATV CONNECTION IS AWSOME!!!!

 

2many,

Its' wonderful to hear you enjoy the site. Thank you so much.

If you haven't made your photo page yet, maybe you can share some pics of your bike? Love to see it.

 

2manytoys, thanks for the mention. If you are willing, I 'll use you as a spokesperson. When you pull that cylinder again, pay for the shipping and I'll port it for you for free. That is as long as you post the results on the forum. I have been thinking about doing this for awhile for someone, but you look like a good candidate. It will really wake up that 250. What do you think? Bubba

 

What would this do for me? What kind of gains will i get? This was going to be my next mod to do. But if it did not do much i was not going to pay the money to do it. Have you done a Trailblazer before? I have heard that you do good work. So if you want to try it i would be glad to send it to you. That would be good for business. I have been very impressed with the mods i have now but i really want people to turn thier heads when they see the heavy 250 flying by.

 

2manytoys,

You're welcome, I'm just glad I could help out. I figured we were in about the same geographic location, altitude and riding conditions, so my jetting should get you close if not right on.

 

I have done several 250's. The 400's are what I like to do (just because that's what I own). I did one for a guy who lives in Dallas,TX that has a HPD pipe and Ritter modded head, and he said it flyed after it was ported. I do a trail version on those so you dont have to run straight race gas or a heavy mix. Gotta be sure to run premium all the time, and on the warmer days you might half to mix a little to keep detonation down. If you never had a 2-cycle ported, that is where the real power comes in. It will add as much as putting on that pipe did. Just thought I would offer. If you want to sometime just let me know,Bubba
