12000 RPM. MAX RPM IS 13000RPM. this is for the race track on the road 11,000/11,500 spot on,

STOCK CYLINDERHEAD BORED TO FIRST OVER = IT175 CYLINDERHEAD MODIFIED ON A LATHE. at what angle was the squish re cut to and did you measure the squish also this lines up the edge to the cylinder bore,

CARBURATOR MODIFIED; BORED OUT TO REDUCE VENTURIS. what size is the carb now,

REJETTED ON THE STREET FOR THROTTLE MAX AND FULL THROTTLE; are both the same meaning,

wot = wide open throttle,

K&N AIR FILTER. have you oiled the filter

also you need the reed block porting and flowing and finishing off in 80 grit production hone marks this aids the mixing of the fuel and oil into the engine

taper port the front of the carb

open out reed stops

inlet port open 360 degree reed block stops and starts flow

exhaust port 22mm from top of cylinder liner and make the exhaust port wider as well

guide inlet flow towards boost port

line up transfer entrances on the barrel to crank cases

the ports need a 2mm chamfer at a 10 /12 degree angle

flat and polish piston crown and combustion chamber in cylinder head and the exhaust port

bigger carb

if not using a boost bottle then connect one

set squish to 1.00mm
