Ill be sending my core back this weekend. The 351 has proved itself

 

Sent mine back last week so he has at least one...

 

I don't understand why your bike would be torn apart for weeks. Are you planning on taking your time putting everything back together. Last April is when I did my big bore and I told bill I wanted my exact same cyl. back. He said no problem but it would take an extra day maybe 2. So I sent my cyl. out on a Friday, and got my 351 kit on the following thursday. Thats less then a week! My bike was only down 8 days and it was to cold to ride here at the time so it didn't really matter. But, a couple of weeks, does Bill not have any sleeves and pistons at his shop. Then I could understand it taking longer.

 

Because I'm so busy at work and have very little time to spend working on this I wanted to have everything on hand when I started... I did the whole BBK and pumper carb install yesterday... I've only ridden around the neighborhood but the improvement is quite noticeable... Now my clutch is starting to slip so it's time for some Barnett springs....

 

I have just over 400 miles on my BB351 and I can't believe how much torque it has now. Has enough power now to make passing a non issue, head winds don't make a difference. Waiting on my 15t cs sprocket to come in since 1st is almost unusable stock, even in the trails. Next upgrade needs to be heavier forksprings and a revalve kit. Hit 94 mph indicated the other day, not sure what actual mph was since I don't have gps.
