Cool Head?

[dubs LT]

I dont know that much about 85-86 LTs.

Will a power head from an 85/86 work on a 87?

Also is better cooling the only benifit from runnin an aftermarket head?

How do you decide what dome to use?

Thanks again

I don't know much about LT's but the benefit of a cool head is a cooler running motor and that ability to change dome sizes rather easily. If you're alright with running race fuel get a small dome size if not get one of the larger ones. The only sizes I know are for the banshees so I'm not going to make uninformed guesses about the LT.

Alright, Thay make the cool heads for the 87-92 modles but not the 85-86. I have heard of companies making the cool head for the 85-86. But i have not been able to find one. I also want a cool head w/ interchangable domes for that year. I have also heard that the honda 250r 87 year will fit the 85-68 lt250r's head but im not personally sure, If any one has any more information on if this it true, please help!!!

I know that somebody makes them because my buddy has an 85 LT with a cool head. So Ill try to get ahold of him and find out who makes it.

The standard size is probably the biggest one they sell for the lt (as long as they aren't big-bore domes).

Here's a banshee example for ya.. If I remember correctly the standard banshee size is 23cc. They make 23-17 or 16cc domes for them (larger ones for big-bore). My friend put 18cc domes in his and now runs 105 octane. It has absolutely no low-end, but the top-end hits hard and screams.
