Paul:
Air, you resurrected this thread exactly two years after the final post :D

air:
lol  :-o

gowen:
While I understand somebody screwing up, there is just not enough information in the post to know what actually happened to his bike. So, not to be an ass to the kid, but he is only like 12. I don't feel that confidant about his knowing about 4 bangers. THey suck anyways (4 strokes). Maybe I missed something?

air:
I was kinda following that subject for a while, He sent his motor to gorr to get it ported and bored, eric forgot to bore out the head or get a new head whatever you do to compensate for the bigger piston so when he started it up it broke the crank shatterd the piston and cracked the head.

When I say head Im reffering to the combustion chamber.

gowen:
I am seriously in doubt of that, because of all the big bores I've had done, I've just swapped the cylinders and used the stock heads.. With the exception of my personal MXers, just because I have the head modified for race fuel or something like that. He could be right, I've known Mr. Gorr to do things wrong from time to time, but he has always been good about fixing it.
