I love your car man! Very original, that SVO makes it man. You're not to far from ky I see.
Atta Boy!
Yes sir! I always wanted a sweet NPI car. Ive been tossing around the idea of which heads I want to use. My cams are whats driving the desicion, it's at that tipping point of to much lift even with +.060 retainers, well, because of the seal to retainer clearance, it doesn't change no matter what unless I modify. Ahh.. Desicions. Your 6 hours away then, where did you get your tune from? I had a friend get one near Cincy years ago.Thanks man it looks a lot like yours with the same wheels they have. I enjoy the fact that the SVO isn’t very common to see.
Not too far from KY, about 3.5 hours to Cincinnati

O yeah, I'm a NPI but just as he is lol, great info to boot. NPI's have hiden potential that most people dont car to discover, but when you start to look at things closely, some advantages show up. WOW! 250! I cant believe you got them that cheap, that's a steal for those cams, and definitely a great choice for your car. Just to show that theres deals out there, I bought a set of used Kooks long tubes for $300, I had to drive 3hr round trip, but worth every penny to me. The blower you great things with, and hopefully I can go centrifugal one day, I could have done it already but I bought myself a 2007 CRF250 in awsome shape, plus I wanted to ride again.You must know your modular motors, sounds like you’ve been talking to @blak54 about maximizing the capabilities of the NPI heads.
I found a set of used comp xe262ah cams for $250 and jumped on them knowing they would work safely and the SVO was beat up and pretty cheap but took some cash for supporting mods. If I spent more money I think I’d try to do the build more meticulously with more research like you’re doing.
I had an SCT handheld and all of the tuning was done remotely from dirtydirtyracing.com (can’t remember his screen name but he posted early in this thread). He did a great job getting this running smooth just by me sending him minimal amounts of data from the wideband.

Good lookout on the tuning stuff, I want to get her dailed in when I'm done, and may go have her put on the rollers giggles .
Dont get me wrong cause I would love to have a blower, but they get you in trouble quick, and the bike I can rip it anytime I want . Grass got cut, but now I'm in the garage now messing around doing some clearance stuff with the seal and retainer, blak gave me a good idea so here it goes.Yeah I’m sure it takes some research and dedication to maximize the potential of the 2v. Parts can be expensive but with some patience great deals pop up every once in a while.
I don’t blame you on getting a bike rather than a supercharger first, I’m sure it’s a different kind of thrill
Bummer about the Ranger frame. Glad you found a good replacement.
