And there expensive too.All the stuff ive done has been over a period of time, not a big sum all at once. I'm probably going to start a war here but whatever. I'll look into it more later

I will just say this. There are many people with big bore pistons and stroked out warrior/wolverines/raptors out there that have been running strong for years. Yes when you run more power it does create more stress and heat causing wear but this engine is quite durable and reliable for any number of mods you do to it... As long as there done right. This is the biggest factor.

I just ordered the parts about an hour ago. I am very excited to see what they do when they come in. I am going to ride it the way it is when the parts come in and I install them. When I get enough cash together I'll have a local shop port the heads for me. I should get the cash fairly easy because he owes me moneywhich = reducing the price. I'm guessing that a no to the torque whatever?

You don't have to get your head ported but it will help. I'd save up and get the cylinder honed out and get some good cross hatch in the bore so the rings seat for the new piston otherwise you'll have all sorts of blow by and it will burn oil. Not good for making power.
I personally wouldn't go for the torque stuffer. Yamaha already made the Raptor's headpipe smaller then the warrior's in diameter to make a little more low end power/torque. It's just going to work against that big of a cam.

How much power does a 400 have... 30-34? I would agree with you, it's going to take a lot.
27-30 H.P.

best way to beat one of the 400's is to pawn the 350 and put the money towards a big bore raptor.

Sweet, what do you have done to it?!
Could you gear it up one tooth in the front? I think that would just about do it.
