I was reading about Team Screams motors and have not been on one but was wondering if the stroker 61x cylinder will out perform a standard stroke lamey motor w/ say freestyle porting?

Hunter, yes you were. You rode my single-carbed 860 a few weeks ago. When I was down there, I rode an 820 5mm 61X Team Scream motor and it hit almost as hard as mine, and it hit a lot harder than any 61X cylinder that I have ridden anywhere.
Dammit, I'm going to have to get in line now for my next build this winter as it sounds like he's getting a surge in business.
I kind of liked when Team Scream was a dirty little secret, but it's also good that Chuckie is getting the recognition that he deserves.
I rode a lamey powered std stroke non pwr valve motor w/ dual 44's and was NOT impressed. Just was not there on low end.
Yes, That's right 61X based cylinders have more bottom end and less upper mid and top when compared to the std configured lamey porting and much cheaper on the wallet. But for real horsepower the lameys are the way to go, but there're not freestyle friendly (R&D castings were designed for mod class racing for top end RPM's) and are costly to build the right (my) way. I can make them hit as hard as the 61x and pull all the way to top end with my water injection set-ups and 'B' pipe mods I do.
I think Steve's (Lance Lakes) new Team Scream is exactly what you are looking for to compare. He's not too far away, but you better hurry as it's getting cold
