If I was you I would leave the motor alone...You will get alot of use from the motor if left stock...
But for what you want, it doesnt matter which bike...

An 08 busa with a 3mil overbore is a 1441, the 2mil get you 1415. The 14 with a 3mil is 1450cc. and 2mil 1418 respectfuly. The reason some dislike the 14 design is its harder and more expensive for shops to build[read less profit] But the one piece blk is by far a sturdier platform. The real advantage of the busa in race forum is the aftermarket, Its the small blk chevy of the bike world. I would do a 2mil lightened/balanced crank 14 with mild port and 385 grind cams,run a second fan and you will have one hellava street bike. These motors are proving to be very dependable and fast. Mine runs 8.60's and is still a smoother overall street bike then the busa........ Bill

Depends on how you ride... smokin doesn't have anything done internally, and he's turning mid 8's... but he's a midget with freakishly large balls and about 30 years of ass time.

You'll have to talk to Carpenter, Coby Adams or HTP for the best combo for what you want
The ET's and MPH with Rickey Gadson or Ricky Grayson will be alot different than what you will do !!!
