I think all 400cc kit's will require a sleeve.
but I would / will probably go with LRD before Trinty.

My friend has the 420 Long Rod kit in his banshee, with the 2-1 Carb, and FMF Fattys, he is in the high 60s. As a comparison, When we were playing in the sand hills, I had paddles on my piped 99 Banshee, and he had Realtors. He could climb steeper and longer hills than I could, just because he could hold 3rd or 4th gear all the way up, while I was downshifting to second and first.

It is an Awesome motor, but like i've said before, Trinity is the worst company in the world for holding to deadlines.

I sent my motor to Trinity for the 420 kit. My motor was there for six to seven weeks. I really like it & if I build another banshee, I'll send it to them too.

You know, u have nothing better to do with your time than trash Yamaha's, do you. Sorry, but every Yamaha owner I know rides the hell out of their quad and have no problems. I also know many DS 650 owners that swear they are junk and will never own them again. I rode one, and personally, I think they handle like crap. They are also not as fast as lived up to be. Raptors smoke em and so do modified banshee's. You might say "yeah but they are modified" but for what it costs for a stock DS, u can buy a banshee and modify it to the gills and still have money left over. Get over your DS buddy, it is not the greatest thing on earth. For that matter, my highly modified warrior can beat a DS in a 100 Yard drag! I have never had the slightest problem with my quad. So put that in your pipe and smoke it!

They build great motors, I agree! But after they had my friends motor for about a month, we called and asked how things were going. They said that they just finished the cylinder work, and it would be in our hands in two weeks. They even gave us a date that it would be shipping. 3 weeks later, we called, and they said that they havn't even started on the motor, and that it would be 2 weeks before it was done. After 2 weeks we call and the motor is done, and they would ship in 3 days. We call them a week later, and oops, we are back ordered on pistons (which I thing are 30 over blaster pistons?). A few weeks later, the motor finally comes, packaged in a box that looks like they found in a dumpster.

So basically, the customer service they showed us was pretty bad, and I've heard the same sort of things about them from others as well. However, The motor they built makes up for it. It was worth the wait!
