ok so im looking on ebay n i want to no if i get the brakit do i need longer shocks? im struggling i need input guys so im thinkingof what i should order this weekend its ether going to b handling n control by getting the front brakit widening n tge wheel spacers for the back or go for proformance n get the flywheel lightind plz pplgive me input cuz im not unhappy with the proformance but i no it could b alot better n im going to want to do the widening kits eventually
 
If u don't have control what's the point of making go faster I prefer getting a arms and shocks but that's just preference
 
focus on handling first, as it has been said on here many times "all the power in the world cant help you if you cant control it"

i would look into getting a arms instead of a widening kit or wheel spacers. i would get the alba a arms with banshee spindles so i could use ball joints top and bottom and add hydo front brakes if it was a 88 to 02 model
 
OK, so I am looking on eBay and I want to know that if I get the bracket (diamond J Widening Kit), do I need longer shocks? I am struggling with this decision as I am not sure what to do and I need your input guys. So I'm thinking of what I should order this weekend, either go with handing and control by getting the Diamond J kit and then buying wheel spacers for the back. Or should I go for performance and get the flywheel lightened. I would appreciate your wisdom and input due to the fact that I am not happy with the performance of my blaster. But i do know from reading here that the performance could be a lot better, plus I am eventually going to want the widening kit.


1. I have never used the widening kit, so I have no opinion on them. I know many members on here use them with no troubles and will suggest them if the question is asked.

2. the sell for $219.00 on eBay HERE, why not spend the extra couple bucks and get the actual a-arms from Alba HERE?

3. then you have hub spacers for the rear here for $72.00 HERE. Yes I know you can get them cheaper but I personally dont know if I would trust the stud extenders vs something like that.

4. That is a combined $300 on the front end. But you say its either that or flywheel lightening!?!?! Ken lightens flywheels for $60.00 + shipping. maybe $80 total??? Do you know how much performance you can get for $300?? Ken ports the blaster cylinder for $175.00 based on his website HERE. Add shipping you will be close to $200+. then Add in the head mod and forget about the flywheel for now. The only thing lightening your flywheel gets you is revving the motor faster. Not and actual performance gain per say.

My suggestion? Get the a-arms and pass on the widening kit. then later send your cylinder and head to Ken, have him port and do the head mod.
 
ok thanks guys so im think hold off on the flywheel for now n going for a sprocket kit n a arms or spacers any input like what sprocket kit i should go for
