Buying a Zilla?

Buying a Zilla?
Hi I currently have a raptor and 2 warriors, i love the raptor for the dunes with the engine mods i have. I beat banshees that are piped filtered jetted, and mild port jobs. But I feel the need for a 2 stroke and was thinking about a Zilla, what kinda mods should I put on it to beat some of the faster shee's, but the drag one's just the heavy port polish with compression and maybe strokers.

Depending on what you spend. You still might not beat the highly mod'd banshees.
Don't get me wrong, there is nothing like the power of the big 500, and you'd be all smiles... Just don't believe that it's always the fastest thing out there.
It's all about cubic $$'s.
A good stage IV port job, mill the head to get around 180psi static compression (With the appropriate squish band adjustment), 41.5mm PWK carb, and a good pipe (Paul Turner or LRD) would make a very happy machine..
You'll always want to run high octane fuel with any head mod, as these pigs are prone to detonation. Coolant temp gage is a wise investment also... Overheating is a common killer of the 500's
One thing you might want to consider... a 2 stroke requires more maintainence than what you are used to.
Good luck
