What are the first three questions that you should be asked when you call anyone about high performance engine work, especially porting and cams?

1] How do you intend to ride the bike?

2] How big is the motor going to be?

3] What size carbs are your intending to run?

If you don't get questioned....."NEXT" B)

Should add another question to that list for as both you and Buzz @ Dynoman asked me in our initial conversation...

4) What are you realistically trying to accomplish in your build ?
example: low end torque accelerations, high end WOT speeds, cruising or twisties, emission requirements, are you mechanically inclined :blink: :laugh:, how much $$$ are you truly wanting to spend etc....

That reminds me of when I used to train salesman. Anyone worth their salt will want to know what you will be using it for.
