Just get it ported. For trails and stuff I wouldnt get a cub or anything. You can get a good aggressive trail port and it would be enough to scare you, go that route and save a boat load of money.

This is a question that needs to be carefully researched because the Banshee has so much potential depending on your needs. You need to decide if you are willing to use race gas. Many motor mods will require that the crank be pulled out and welded and trued. So do research on different Banshee builders web sites. The best forum by far is BansheeHQ. Study previous threads and you will get more info than you can possible digest. Your T-5 is probably the best pipe for a built up motor so you have a very good start. There are many good mods that do not require a big bore including cylinder porting, head compression, carb boring/modifying, timing, etc. Just avoid throwing mods at the motor without a well thought out plan or you could wind up with an unreliable ride. Good luck. Long live the Shee.
