a good place to send out for port and polish work would be trinity racing. Go to trinityracing.com for prices and different types of work that can be done.

So your trying to catch back up to Raptiod huh!! LOL!!

I used Port Works to do my 250R cylinder.
They are local (Tulsa) & race at Atoka with me.
It was less than $200 if I remember right & it made an amazing diffrence.
I had a Dune & trail type porting & it ripped.
They can do from mild to wild.
They do all kinds of Shee work From stroker cranks & override trans to pipes & porting.

Well if you have it apart, spit the case and have the crank welded
before it's to late! if your going into porting without a welded crank you'll be sorry! A stock crank is just pressed together and to much power will spin the crank apart and destroying your motor and trans
Anything more than a set of pipes needs a welded crank.

Moose is right, Portworks does good work. My friend had some work done on his, then he dropped a cylinder, and Darren at Portworks helped him out, and he will answer just about any question you can ask. My friends Shee now runs like Osama is from our troops.

Portworks will do a good job for you.
Yea that sand in the cyl suks!!
At least you get to make some improvements now.
It swure lasted a while since last spring.
Ask Darren about what else you should do. Since it's gonna be down for a while you may as well check on the welded crank. I don't know much about Shees but it sounds logical.

Check with either Rudy Kurtz or K&T performance. They build some fast reliable motors.
