    1500 finally put together!

    Sorry for no dyno charts at this time, but long story short, I (with the help of Sean of course) finally got my vmax made into a 1500! With the new higher compression pistons, I got the assembly balanced, ported my heads and v-boost manifolds, and used Sean's bigger 5th gear. I started it up...

    For Sean...ring gap question.

    Hi Sean, it's Marc Matczak. It's been a long time since I bought my pistons, sleeves, studs, oil pump mod, 5th gear and whatever else I got from you for my vmax 1500 project. I am finally hell bent on not working on anybody else's stuff until I get my 1500 setup together. Could you please...

    Before/After...

    Sorry for the poor quality of the dyno graph. I'm not that good at computers. I wasted 45minutes trying and trying to downsize the graph to fit on the post and now it's hard to read. Anyways...before= 108.18hp 76.31tq and after=131.36hp 86.77tq. (std). I didn't know which correction people went...

    Need new rear tire...help!

    Well, I know for a fact now that I played at the strip, there is no way my tire will pass inspection next time around! I am currently running stock rubber (2000 vmax). With the same stock rims, what tire does everybody recommend? I only ride 1,000 ish miles a year (because I live in Erie and the...

    Results after 7 passes...

    I had fun, but a little dissapointed. It was a nice cold day, but quite a bit of wind in the face (working against me). My old 89 w/supertrapp slip ons best after a half dozen passes on a warm day was 11.67 at 116 mph. Today on my 2000 100% stock was 11.75 at 113 mph. I couldn't find a sticky...

    No Mercy!!!!

    The quick story... My two friends have 96 750 chain drive stock Magnas. They actually do run real nice. After I let the one friend drive down the highway and drop a gear next to his buddy, the verdict was that the vmax did have a "little" more. Then he said "so that's a 750 also"? I said...

    Good or bad differential?

    I wanted to put some highway gears in my 2000 vmax for longer trips, so I bought a differential from somebody, which was said to be from an 86 venture 1300 (3.33 gear ratio instead of vmax's 3.667). When I checked how many turns of the shaft to turns of the wheel, it was more like 2.9! I guess...

    Hi. Newbie w/general question...2000vmax

    Hi. New to the site, but had an '89 for many years w/no problems. Finally (family growing up) able to get my hands on another vmax. I picked up a beautiful 2000 w/7500 miles from a friend who took extremely good care of it. (owned by a lady). My question is...on the 2000, what issues should...
