If you raised octane you would most likely be ok..but the chamber design on the stock head is way more likely to hit det..brads combustion chamber design is a major reason he can raise comp and performance with out raising octane requirements,,get brads head....
hey thanks for the reply! thats exactly what i was looking for. to see if they were different.
does he have a new head for the 2012?
does he have a new head for the 2012?
is the head different form 2011 to 2012. even tho they changed the cylinders?
Same head.
One other thing to consider.
With a cyl head mod/swap, you will be voiding your warranty on the engine.
If you roll into the dealer with your sled for a different warranty claim and they notice mods on the sled (pipes, cans, heads, control boxes, intake mods etc) they are required by Polaris to make a note of this on your "unit inquiry" record attached to your VIN number in their data base.
Swapping back to stock if you have a problem is fraud and is something that all the sled companies are looking at carefully for warranty claims.
