Just a few questions

Do I have to remove the clean air "junk" on top of the motor to run my M14?

What is involved in removing wheel bearings and installing my ceramics?

Will degreeing my cams without head work give me more power?

Can I install and degree cam sprockets without pulling the motor?

Will the motor make more power with a timing advancer?

At 175 lbs, 64 inches wb, stock motor w/bolt ons what rear sprocket size is best 1/4 mile?

This is the 1st 14 I am personally putting together and just need some good advice, recomendations.


I have ridden quite a few 14's at the strip since they came out, now I own one of these, so I had to take alot of "trash" off of this bike and correct some poor "fabrication" and go thru this bike,keeping an eye out for more "monkey" work and neglect. You guys wont believe what I found, but instead of getting more pissed off, I am just replacing anything questionable.

Anyway, I would appreciate the help with these questions, i am sure the answers to them have been posted up in the past.

Perfect- thats kinda what I figured.

As for gearing, its 3 up in the rear now, I know that my 12 was geared way shorter and it loved it, but thats apples to oranges with the launch rpm I usually leave at on the 14, the 12 needed it, I just dont want to be too short.

Thanks Smokin, cool vids on youtube btw.
