Im going to kit out an e50 engine, with homoet pipe, and large carb. What is the best kit to get, for the price, and can you tell me your setups with speed/etc? Thanks in advance.

My setup: PUCH ZA-50 with a 70cc Airsal kit, ported and polished, 20mm Delortto, Tecnigas Twin pipe, 18-28 gearing on a 16"Tomos rear rim. 60mph!
Good luck with your project! Brent
If that is your plan for your new Magnum, I will take your ZA-50 off your hands. and if not... then I mis-spoke Brent
i've never heard of kstar
I run kstar, 60+mph...
i had a k star, 15 bing with 82 jet, no filter, homoet pipe, and 14/40 gearing, it hit mid 50's
obviously the polini has the most potential horsepower. the 70cc kstar is super cheap and nice if u dont mind fucking with different sized base gaskets and cleaning up casting flaws.
the 65 metra is the easiet bolt on kit out there.
why is the metrakit so much easier than a polini?j/w
i might say fuck it, and get a metra kit myself. 4p homoet, and bore out my stock 14mm bing to 15mm. nothing is out here in chicago right now...lol i can't even get a damn spark plug!
Yeah, why is the metrakit easier to install than the polini? Is it because the polini only has the one ring, and if you seize it, it's kinda farked for good?
is it because you can install the metrakit without porting and the polini can not be installed unless you port?
2 reasons. yes it is ok to instal a metrakit without porting. and also the metrakit is just a piston port intake. no reeds.
you can size a metra, hone it and your good. if u seize a polini you are fucked.
the polini has 2 large boost ports on the cylinder and if you dont add them to your case you will start to burn the shit out of the top of the piston.
Maybe the K-stars have changed. Mine is a real nice casting and the dimensions (cyl height) are spot on. For those who have ruined Polini cylinders, send them to me. I will pay postage
I would like to see the kstar kit work bc its cheap...but im leanign towards the metra...
Yeah, I wasn't serious about the 60+ with a kstar, but it's a great kit and I beat on it hard, and it works great. I made the holes on the piston bigger though.
my metrakit is fast ,it keeps up with traffic and flys up the hills
do you have a 65 cc metrakit? what else you running coco?
standard set up,15mm intake,15mm bing,foam filter,biturbo,mild case port,65cc metrakit,#82 jet.
i never installed a kit or did any porting before,the metrakit was my first,it was a piece of cake!
