well I bought the 470 kit from tudors performance.
went with the 13.5-1 piston, should have it all back together sometime next week
will have to rejet, so I need to find a good shop here in phoenix that really knows what
they're doing for jetting. im not that great at it.
the head should be done in a few days so I can shim the valves while I'm waiting
for the 470 kit to arrive

While your looking around for a shop, look for a dyno too and get us some hp numbers on that beast!!!

Sounds awsome, post pics asap

once I get it back together and broke in i'm going to put it on the dyno with stock gearing
theres a place about 10 miles from me
the head is done i just have to go get it, all my parts are here except the
470 kit so I should have everything ready to put together when it comes in
which should be monday, they're waiting for the piston to come in
cant wait to see how it will do

Just wondering if you had it dynoed before? We would get a better idea of your gains.
Should be a good setup.

yes it was dynoed right after I had the 440 kit installed
it had 36 ft lbs of torque and 44 hp at the wheels at 6500 rpm
top speed 83 mph so I cant wait
still working on the jetting for it

who carries the hammerhead piston? either i'm going 434 or maybe try cams and port/polish with a high compression. im trying to save some money for another
bike(2-stroke maybe).im not sure if iu want to save and put everything into my 400.i was thinking 13:1 (je,weisco,or hammerhead??)piston.i'm getting a set of cams and kibblewhite valve springs for $150. so i was thinking good port job and piston for now.

any info would be great,you guys have given me so much already thank you. wife - kid- $=[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

CP/VCP makes the "Hammerhedz" piston.

Bare Performance Hammerhedz

As for the timing chain, check this site out.
