Here is a few pics of my high flow head used on a couple of big cc TRXS I build!I wonder how it would work on a stock bore build? This is at the beginning stages ! A few people asked me to share!

thats good stuff there, very impressive. Did you flowbench it before and after? I expect the column of air will get moving sooner with the dual ports, just wonder if you saw that on the bench. On the exhaust ports, will an exhaust seal up to that, just looks so much bigger than stock. Again, nice work.

Thanks! This set up flows! Had to slow it down a bit on the exhaust sidewith a little more of a restrictive exhaust! CUSTOM HEAD PIPE WAS MADE .Without the flow bench it would not have been possible !

I wouldn't expect NFL to say, but if he wanted to PM me how much air it flows at how many inches of water, I would know how much it is possible of supporting and I wouldn't tell anyone rofl

Just courious if you plan on having the reversion at the head or on the end of the exhaust? Seems like a big chamber or megaphone with a steep reverse would work well with that.

Alot of questions that as of now I cant answer! These heads are on a couple of machines and are being tested with several different carb applications! We have had to make several cam changes! I like to share but it is still new and well if I give out all my secrets some of my new engines will not be half hilling the competion! Till then enjoy these pics!

By the way everyone one BIG carb flows better than two small ones. Don't be fooled! The 660 raptors have been doing this for years. [/quote I have a flow bench and why are you all fustated ?I am 300lbs on a heavy chasie! I have a few people that have light chasies ,and a jockey the same weight as your sons and my 600 cc trx I can assure you would beat all the 650 and smaller all gas class! My 12mill trx kickinsand in my competitors faces priceless for all my competitors theres visa,mastercard better get it out your going to need it!

By the way the 3 of them weigh between 120 - 130 lbs.
Better spend that $$$ And as I recall you were always in back a few people seen it! Well I wold be upset if I spent alot of money and a 300lb guy beat me too! SORRY !

I dont make my living at this I own 2 businesses in the Bay area of which you could google and see that I dont do this for the Money just the reckining! People always want to know more and more and all I said is half hill and then you start to bash me and state that singles are better then duals !I will keep building these so everyone can have fun and talk it up! You to seem like a good guy as well but you talk as if you know what your saying, and you pay to have your stuff done which is fine but I have al the resources and I build my own stuff!

Um no we don't. I like the idea he stepped out to try something different. BTW show me ANY shop/person that builds single carb raptors that has won any type of drag or hill event. The new 700's have a combined intake but thats another story. I know of one guy building a 3 runner setup for a 5valve raptor head. The single setups are for the lazy people who cant tune. grin
The fast DS's are using twins also.
I am not sold on the exhaust porting yet but I like the intakes on that head.

Not taking sides but I think NFL was being sacastic on the half hill comment.1st who cares if it works or not! Thats a good idea if your interested go and try it? I can only guess it took alot of work since these heads have big water jackets,2nd why say something like a single is better then one? thats kinda of demining aint it?3rd Iwas at the race in Pismo and watched NFL and hes a big dude 300 and 6ft5inches and his bike was running fast and well with him on it .I watched him race a yfz that was blue and had MMAd stickers on it the first race a tie the second race NFL was ahead a bike went to see the third and the kid would not run why? Any way could only imagine if that NFL guy had a 100 lb jockey that could ride it for him just my 2 cents! I thgink NFL is going to AVI Why dont you guys settle this then ?

Well Tom see ya there at AVI I will have one of my 550s there we will have to run em best of 3 or 5 ? As for being ignorant that would be you ! You spoke that a big single flows better then 2 singles? Beter do your home work!Call you engine builder! And as for the businesses it was put out there that finacialy I dont need to make money at this ,but if you need a layman answer to how I have the time with all my companies I dont have a wife and kids or a family and since this is somthing I enjoy I find my extra time wrenching on 4 strokes!I like to inform people and you have done nothing but put me down! That shows everyone how you truly are and I feel bad for you!

Not to put a thorn in your side but it was NFL,S red honda. He was wearing a yellow helmet I spoke with him after nice guy .I did see the wood pecker bike run a few times very fast ideed ! Question cant we all just get along? This seems like it is a serious as nascar racing!

what size valves fill the holes?

personally, I do not think the cost of manufacturing this head would justify the small increase...

I'd be interested in seeing some 'evidence' instead of smoke and mirror show though... maybe some dyno proof, or flowbench graphs...

I commend the R&D though,.... R&D is the second step to raising the bar,.. the first step is proving to everyone that you are 'worthy' of lifting the bar to the next level.

no offense, no bash, just waiting for your technical justification..

just my 0.02.

Actually Craycraft recommends the duel carbs...I am testing a single on his porting. He is interested in the outcome but not endorsing the theory.
I think a single will flow as much, if not more than two carbs of equal area just because there is less surface friction.

Duel carbs are a much better race setup. With a drag pipe they will make it possible to cam a bike to run peak hp from the starting line all the way to the traps.

A single carb will make more peak torque but it will build up fast and drop off just as fast.

Yamaha shot themselves in the foot on the racing application with the 700R when they didn't give it dual intake ports. I know why they did it but it will be a limiting factor unless someone does the same thing to it.

Good Job NFL! You are def on the right track!

i jus wont to know how much a head and cam setup like this would cost... im kinda intrested in something like this..
by the way... what size carbs and valves go with this head?

Ive ran NFLs bike and it runs real good for how heavy it is and he is.

What about CFM? I know yall are doing the math arent you? I guess flow numbers would see if it would make sence.

John I think duall 38s will be good maybe 36s.

I cant wait to hear how it runs. You have to test different things to find out what works so the more testing the better.

I went from a single 48mm to dual 38mm on everything from 650 cc to 800cc. I also had a set of dual 44mm carbs on my nitrous 800. The 44's weren't quite as nice a curve as the 38's on all motor but on nitrous they made more topend without any midrange loss.

The dual 38's made less peak torque but it was a very flat curve that ran way out. The result was a flat peak power curve from 8000 rpm to 10,500 before it started dropping off.

The benefit of this is if you make 80 hp with this setup, dump the clutch at 9000 rpm, it drops to 8000 and wraps back up to 10,500 then you grab another gear, you only drop down to 8500 in each subsequent gear. This means you never drop below 80 hp.

I came to the conclusion that you would have to make about 100 hp with the single carb setup to average 80 hp with its peaky up and down curve.

So which is a more realistic way to average the most hp? smile

he's not advertising prices yet, but i'm going to say somewhere in the $2k or higher range for the head work, then throw in $700 for the carbs, a few hundred for the different cam combos that you'll have to try to get the best performance, oh and the price of a much larger stroker kit!!!
but if you wanna be the fastest, then money's no object!!! its definately cutting edge stuff & i would love to see it run.

If you have a flow bench like you said. Get some numbers posted and what inches of water you are flow. We have done about everything you can do to a honda head to make it flow the most cfm. The highest we have been able to pull is 320cfm in 28inches of water. Thats with +1 custom made ferrea valves.

What everyone has forgot is that NFL is Leadfoot. The owner/ builder of the infamous TRX turbo was a total slug and he also said his nitro Predator that would smoke everyone too. I think he changed his screen name over the turbo embarassment.

Man you guys are not nice to this dude! I heard about that predator about over 2 years ago it ran real well for a POLARIS! and the honda turbo bike was almost a 2 years ago! He must have somehing on you guys to get your panties all in a bunch! I think your all upset because he trys things and is willing to accept the challange! I beleive this guy is on the right track to some extra power give him a break!

Man ,Bruce your not playing fair ! I will be nice about this and say I design,R&D,Flow test heads, and build all my engines my self,and if I often read correctly you have many engine builders work on your stuff ? Correct ? Besides, if I get you to spend alot more money then I have done my job twice! And if My 300 lb A$$ wins thats icing on the cake! Oh I forgot you need nitrous to go fast stupid me! I will have to build an all nitrous engine soon!

I use MMAD for my YFZ and Kenz for my Raptor. Saying you're going to "half hill" people is what causes you these problems. You seem to have to tell everyone how fast your stuff is...show us it's fast and you won't have to "pimp" your stuff anymore. When your fast everyone knows...there's no need to tell them.

Bruce,again I think you take this to literaly! If you dont know what I am trying to get across then I will say it this way, you take this to seriously! I only made that statement because I was asked to share some pics and really dont have anymore info to give ,but my recent stuff I have worked on runs well even though I have a heavy chasise and My weight being 300+lbs so if weight = horsepower and I could shead 180s with a jockey and another 150lbs on a chasie and my old 600 laid down 65 horsepower then our new 615 is 75 hp and the total combined weight-is 330 lbs and 10 lbs =1 horsepower then we should gain another 30 horsepower which then = 105 horsepower that with a good chasie should really crank dont you think? and thats all on gas but we shall see anyway good luck and see you at the races!

I was doing some thinking about the twin carb setup compared to the big single and why it works best. This is what i came up with. I am not an expert in physics so this explanation might have a few holes in it but here it is.....

It isn't just about volume (CFM). The single 50 might have more CFM than dual 38's. I haven't done the math on that.

What it is about is ramp rate and volumetric efficiency. Which setup do you think will be better suited to fill the cylinder more completely at low rpm?

Now which setup will be better suited to fill the cylinder more completely at high rpm?

The intake air is constantly starting and stopping as the vacuum signature of the piston dropping on the intake stroke gets blocked by the closed intake valves during combustion and the exhaust stroke.

Which carb setup will more easily pick up velocity and volume when the intake valves open again?

Here is the big one: Which carb setup has higher velocity? Intuitively the first response is to assume the smaller carbs will have more velocity but that is not true from a physics standpoint. In reality, velocity is volume over time. The smaller carbs are running about half the volume over a given time frame each as compared to the bigger carb so the smaller carbs each actually have much less velocity.

That means that the twin smaller carbs can move about the same CFM into the chamber but they can do it at a lower velocity with a much quicker pick-up from the vacuum signature. Knowing this begs the question which setup will have less turbulance and reversion in the intake ports? The setup with the least velocity will. Think about throwing a rubber ball at a concrete wall. The faster you throw it, the quicker and farther it bounces back. This is what happens to the air when the intake valves close.

This added efficiency and almost equal CFM allows you to maintain a higher VE at higher rpms.

The twin carbs will mean slower air measured at the carbs but they will provide faster and more focused air entering the cylinder.


Sorry for the book! smile Just some things to think about.

ok now depinding on your cams if you have realy high velocity on the bottom of the intake and BDC or some upwerd comp stroke you can use that to your advantege to fill that cylinder rather then slow velocity not filling the cylinder.

guss like evry thing else you have to find that happy medeum and find what combo works best for you set up duals mite work better on ones set up and singles work on the other.sixpack

dood,.. no offense,....I'm not trying to be a deekhead, but you should delete your entire post... your physics is wacked!

the only thing of value was when you mentioned volumetric efficiency... concentrating on VE is what builds power,....from the dyno curves John has posted he should concentrate more on VE than the two carb setup imo...being 100% efficient is making more than he posted.. use his dyno post as an example and crunching a couple volumetric efficiency equations at various rpms, you'd be real shocked.

the greatest restriction in the entire head is the valve,... its not the port, and a single 43mm fcr carb will flow near 375cfm at 28"wc,.. more than enough flow...

velocity is dependent upon cross-sectional area.... the two smaller carb setup has 13% more cross sectional area than the one large carb setup. velocity is inversely proportional to cross-sectional area,... meaning the bigger the carb the lower the velocity through its venturi...

getting higher volumetric efficiencies, thus higher hp,is not dependent upon a two carb setup.... controlling reversion, ram filling, maximizing front to back flow ratios is of greater concern...

John,... again, I apologize to you if you think I'm against your efforts, cause I'm not,... I actually commend your R&D,... I understand that in order to be successful you must have failure,... my entire point is that I think you may need to 'reverse' engineer your numbers to find greater gains...

Good luck.

The twin carbs will mean slower air measured at the carbs but they will provide faster and more focused air entering the cylinder.


Sorry for the book! smile Just some things to think about.


dood,.. no offense,....I'm not trying to be a deekhead, but you should delete your entire post... your physics is wacked!

the only thing of value was when you mentioned volumetric efficiency... concentrating on VE is what builds power,....from the dyno curves John has posted he should concentrate more on VE than the two carb setup imo...being 100% efficient is making more than he posted.. use his dyno post as an example and crunching a couple volumetric efficiency equations at various rpms, you'd be real shocked.

the greatest restriction in the entire head is the valve,... its not the port, and a single 43mm fcr carb will flow near 375cfm at 28"wc,.. more than enough flow...

velocity is dependent upon cross-sectional area.... the two smaller carb setup has 13% more cross sectional area than the one large carb setup. velocity is inversely proportional to cross-sectional area,... meaning the bigger the carb the lower the velocity through its venturi...

getting higher volumetric efficiencies, thus higher hp,is not dependent upon a two carb setup.... controlling reversion, ram filling, maximizing front to back flow ratios is of greater concern...

John,... again, I apologize to you if you think I'm against your efforts, cause I'm not,... I actually commend your R&D,... I understand that in order to be successful you must have failure,... my entire point is that I think you may need to 'reverse' engineer your numbers to find greater gains...

Good luck.
I know you not against me ! Thanks for all the imput!

It isn't just about volume (CFM). The single 50 might have more CFM than dual 38's. I haven't done the math on that.

What it is about is ramp rate and volumetric efficiency. Which setup do you think will be better suited to fill the cylinder more completely at low rpm?

Now which setup will be better suited to fill the cylinder more completely at high rpm?

The intake air is constantly starting and stopping as the vacuum signature of the piston dropping on the intake stroke gets blocked by the closed intake valves during combustion and the exhaust stroke.

Which carb setup will more easily pick up velocity and volume when the intake valves open again?

Here is the big one: Which carb setup has higher velocity? Intuitively the first response is to assume the smaller carbs will have more velocity but that is not true from a physics standpoint. In reality, velocity is volume over time. The smaller carbs are running about half the volume over a given time frame each as compared to the bigger carb so the smaller carbs each actually have much less velocity.

That means that the twin smaller carbs can move about the same CFM into the chamber but they can do it at a lower velocity with a much quicker pick-up from the vacuum signature. Knowing this begs the question which setup will have less turbulance and reversion in the intake ports? The setup with the least velocity will. Think about throwing a rubber ball at a concrete wall. The faster you throw it, the quicker and farther it bounces back. This is what happens to the air when the intake valves close.

This added efficiency and almost equal CFM allows you to maintain a higher VE at higher rpms.

The twin carbs will mean slower air measured at the carbs but they will provide faster and more focused air entering the cylinder.

If the volumetric flow rate the engine so desires is constant, or it wants the same gulp with either carb setup only then would velocity be completely dependent upon area. However I think varying area would effect the gulp the engine desires leaving velocity dependent upon area and volumetric flow rate.

wow great post. LOL go for it,I hope it runs like a raped ape.I would just like to say I got one of the slowest heaviest engines and most difficult to make fast (predator) If I had the resources I would not let any trash talk on the net stop me from trying to go faster.

I'm no authority on physics or engine building but it is the most interesting thing to me.I did read the VE is about filling the cylinders and intake wise that should do it.I guess the trick would be to get the valves big enough and the cam lift and timing would be critical.here is what I read (wish I wrote .LOL)

"The actual amount of air the engine ingests compared to the theoretical maximum is called volumetric efficiency (VE). An engine operating at 100% VE is ingesting its' total displacement every two crankshaft revolutions.

There are many factors which determine the torque an engine can produce and the RPM at which the maximum torque occurs, but the fundamental determinant is the mass of air the engine can ingest into the cylinders, and there is a nearly-linear relationship between VE and maximum torque."

That is very good but the best happens after maximum torque. I will take the setup that holds the highest average torque out to the highest rpm over the motor that makes the highest peak torque any day.

Some engine setups make very good VE up to a moderate rpm then it drops off. The goal is to make the best VE as high in the rpm range as possible.

obtaining 100% VE, or near 100% VE is the easy part... it's getting over 100% VE is what is difficult without going forced induction.... couldn't be done without ram filling,... ram filling or 4th wave tuning is stored in the bowl area so that when the valve opens the cylinder is crammed with more than its volume,... ram filling.. no bouncing balls, just stored mass in the bowl area... the cylinder must be completely evacuated before it can fill... 4th wave tuning is pressure wave tuning, not mass tuning...

for those who can determine VE on this 471cc displacement, this is more than 100% VE...

Obtaining 100% VE is easy at what RPM????

Do you have an induction setup on your Honda builds that makes 100% VE at 10k RPM? How about 8k RPM?

It is easy to reach 100% VE at the same RPM as peak torque occurs.........but that doesn't a fast bike make wink

the whole reason I posted the dyno I did was not to boast or brag in someone else thread, but to ILLUSTRATE that obtaining over 100% VE at 9500 was done on this particular build...

pulling over 100% VE at peak hp isn't only a function of intake tuning but also scavenging...

this was a 471cc build... it should be easy enough to calculate the effective VE on this build... wink

talking fast by what measure? fast in four-stroke builds? fast against two-strokes? or fast like taking this build against two strokes? this build does 6.3sec in 500 dirt, 12.2 in the 1/4mile,... is this fast enough?

So this build is making 100% VE at 9500 rpm? Why?

What does the bike run in 300' just out of curiosity? How much does it weigh?

I am certainly not debating you.....I am asking question so i can better understand where you are coming from. wink

I have seen the dyno results when testing dual intake ports with twin carbs as compared to a large single carb on the same build so i know where I stand. I just want to understand your point better.

Scavaging is important but my comments assume exceptional exhaust design in both scenarios since that was present in the testing.

What is really good about this curve of yours is the fact that you are averaging over 55 hp from 8000 rpm to 10,000 rpm.

This is quite an accomplishment that means your combo is working well together.

The horsepower numbers........who knows. Those are relative to the dyno. We had a guy with a built Raptor 700 get it dynoed at Templeton at 73 hp.......he went to Beaverton Honda and turned 52. So the actual number is irrelevant but the curve itself is impressive. Nice job.

not a 300' time but a 330' time,... this is all i have.. this build was for a good friend... I build for Pro, Amature, and Rec,.. so I was just posting a good build that could detail our discussion a bit further... I hope John is ok with this,... Our discussion may be somewhat tangent to his head casting..

here is a time sheet.

"nearly-linear relationship between VE and maximum torque."
I don't disagree with you.I think the guy that wrote this was speaking in broader terms and not so specific to this sport.IMHO
I really wish that the 700xx was a manual trans in a lighter set up cause I would have bought one.

Loc: how come nothing fits??
ve what a great subject.. good thing the motors piston has the ability to produce a "charging effect within itsself". this can duplicate over 100% fill rate.. or the ability of a motor to fill itself over the actual capacity.. the valve has a role in this as does the intake, cam, and piston..


soo how do you get a motor to "suck" harder than it should or "open its big mouth" a lil bigger... hmmmm

and i am curious how do you figure ve with a dyno run and hp/ tq numbers. i have seen caculators at different sites for that but just curious to see..

I believe a quicker revving motor will create a stronger vacuum signature than a slower revving motor testing at a given rpm with all other variables being equal......I am assuming the question is regarding N/A motor setup.


I don't know how to determine VE with hp and tq numbers but the torque curve gives me an indicator. When torque is up, i am efficiently using my displacement. When torque is down, i am not.

Um no we don't. I like the idea he stepped out to try something different. BTW show me ANY shop/person that builds single carb raptors that has won any type of drag or hill event. The new 700's have a combined intake but thats another story. I know of one guy building a 3 runner setup for a 5valve raptor head. The single setups are for the lazy people who cant tune. grin
The fast DS's are using twins also.
I am not sold on the exhaust porting yet but I like the intakes on that head.



I don't know if anybody remembers but the original YZ400F prototype bike that ran in ama was a dual carb setup but for complexity/production costs reasons i am sure it didn't make it into production with 2 carbs. I was hoping it would though.

Yes ,this set up requires alot of machining and hours of finish work ,and has been through alot of changes since I posted pics! Thanks for all the imput! Dyno runs to follow any guesses what it made on the 600? Somewhere between 70 and 80 !HP 52 ftlbs torque!(back to the bat cave) LoL
