I just ordered high speed pulley from VTCycles. 3-5 day shipping. My rollers were also flat to the metal core!

well i decided to grab the intake mani to see about any porting options, and i realized that the reeds (?) are pretty much stuck to it. I ended up cracking the corner of the plastic base off.

question:
will it not run right now like this?
or
should i just leave this alone and rebuild it stock with this reed, and then when i get the big bore kit + 28mm carb get a new reed (or i have to get a new mani to fit the new carb...?)
thanks guys

Wont run like that, you need a mani and reeds for the new carb. Call up VT and tell em what you have to spend/what you want to do, they should be able to get you a nice setup.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

Might, you will know if it cant, idk if that much seal will take the crank pressure/vacuum for long.

You know I have this piece too right? :lol:

Extra $10 and I can throw it in with the other parts, LMK

And yes for stock application it wont seal right and you would have a small leak by that bolt hole.
projects galore :nerd:

planning on it.
Are their shipping charges alot?
i was planning on ordering a variator/carburator/intake from them once i figured out what i needed.
i guess i might just go ahead and order an exhaust and variator now, and carb and intake on another order.
