I would like to put a big bore in the girl just wondering what kit I should go with and who I should get to install it without having to drive halfway across the country. I'm already running nitrous on the sled. Thanks guys.

Ya it will probably Go with the 860. Is there anywhere in Edmonton who does good work heard specialty wasn't the best and absolute can't even weld a nitrous bracket lol.

You could talk to Split Second in Valleyview or Arctic Edge in Crowsnestpass. Both have a pretty good name in the bigbore world.

Not sure how mechanical you are but you could always pull your jugs off or have someone do it for you. Then pick a builder and send them away. Then they send you back everything you need. Throw er back together, jet and clutch then your in business!

I just would like to be clear on my recommending this post, Sorry i clicked recommended this post, i did not realize absolute name was mentioned, I have nothing against absolute power or heard anything negative. my apologies to absolute.

Ya it will probably Go with the 860. Is there anywhere in Edmonton who does good work heard specialty wasn't the best and absolute can't even weld a nitrous bracket lol.

Lose the Noss and go with the 872...you wont be disappointed. Dave is a great guy to deal with and this engine has reliability and torque.

880 BMP and worked good with no problems .
Tuning is key and recommend bored carbs on which ever you decide.
