    Ok So your 36lbs springs are installed at 0.830 and they stack at 0.450, that leaves 0.380'' for travel. The Mamba lifts 0.275 x 1.3 = 0.3575 - 0.003 (lash) = 0.3545'' lift. And 0.380 - 0.3545 = 0.0255'' before coil stack. So thats a little tight so the springs may run a little hot over time...

    420 390 TAV fitment TAV to block clearance, If i tryed to mount the tav in the center mounting holes (more strait up) the rear bearing would be sitting right on top of the oil filler, and thats with the cap removed. Infact the filler would need to be cut off and welded up. On gx390's or other...

    Baja 420 chop and bend This is the frame being bent and the rake being reduced, i used ratceting tie downs to pull the tubes. pretty much just eye balled it all. The frame is pretty coc-eyed to start with so i think it's better aligned now!

    420 carb opinion I dont plan on keeping the 390/420 carb (i put on a ebay carb with ajustable idle screw by the way, with no air filter and a muffler change it wouldnt run on the non adjustable stock carb) as it's design is to basic. The 420 carb have one thing going for it, it's big...

    How many horse per cube? I like to use the 1 Hp per cubic inch rule, for the average motor that is acheived with improved intake and exhaust, mild porting and a cam in the 220-230 degree range. Wulfs motor has decent porting, raised compression and a big duration cam, (324* gross so 260ish...

    Strocker motor

    THe head gasket bores sit well out side the bore space, that's good, the gasket face will be back from the line of fire, should live. Going for the sleeper look with clean parts on a scruffy block, sneaky.
