Here's the real way to get B I G power but it takes an even bigger budget.

Add in a special transmission for another 2500 + and a special 80mm crank and you could have over 300HP. No idea what you would do with that, but build a special chassis - say 18,000 from someone like PMFR and bodywork etc and you could buy yourself a record for about less than 50k for the bike. Add in a decent rig for say 200k and equip it say another 100k plus a decent crew and really light fast rider.....

And still not close to the power that a modern top fuel bike makes. Ah that's it. We need to run it on nitrous through 44mm Lectrons or custom designed EFI system. Maybe add a turbo too..........

Let me check the couch for change to buy a lottery ticket :roll:

Or then again - maybe not.

Wow, you've got to admire the work in those parts. I was thinking the cases were actually pretty cheap considering the effort involved in making them ... not that I can afford the price in any case :?

What we really need is just the top case CnC cut to take the better cylinders as the bottom case is fine :up:

And if we get both CNC machined we could change to use any 6 speed transmission plus modern alternator and ignition trigger mounted on the crank snub and could fit decent cylinders if we change the cylinder spacing of Left and center just a touch to take say XCR800 top ends and we could change to crankcase reeds and a clutch upgrade.

All it takes is way more skill and money than I have available to me.

Did you notice they said the crankcases were tested to 350HP and that has to be at 1200 to 1500cc of a torque monster. In this world I wouldn't know what to do with 200 HP let alone 350. :?

Very true Richard .. it would be nice to upgrade to the better stuff :up: i wonder what the 350 hp power curve looks like ? I guess we need to add traction control to the must have list :shock:
