  1. Those 2 No not really

    Bore Kits

    Cams

    Induction system

    NOS

    Gearing

    All expensive & And not that easy


  2. speed and horspower are relative to money. how much power and speed can you afford. as far as a cam is concerned call megacycle they have cams or will make a cam for any bike. best way to make power is to get the heads put on a flow bench by a pro.youe motor is basically a airpump the more air you can flow the more power you can make.  as for bolt on get a less restrictive exhaust system and a k and n air filter with a jet kit fir your carb.

  3. It takes me all day to do a cam and piston swap, and I've done plenty.  If you've got the basic skills, you could knock it out on a weekend.  The key to success is to get a copy of the service manual and follow all the disassembly and reassembly instructions carefully, including torque patterns and torque amounts.  Get some muffin pans and put your bolts in order as you remove them, it makes it easier on reassembly.  If you don't have muffin pans, use Ziploc baggies and write on them where they came from.

    You'll need basic tools including a socket set, allen wrenches, open end wrenches, piston ring compressor, flat feeler guages, a flat blade screwdriver, and most important: two torque wrenches (inch pounds and foot pounds).

    You'll need to get all the necessary gaskets, including rocker covers, primary cover, head, etc. as well as oil.  If you need more help, send me an email and I'll get more detailed.
