Did you get in on the sale? He had that Victory tuned pipe for $38.00! If you need it or not it was still a steal.

I got a few things, stroker crank, some plugs, I spent about $350 I got the top end kit, a new case, ez start which I don't think will fit my motor mount, few other odds and ends.

How do you like the black pipe?

I love it! I had a Zippkits pipe on it originally then thought that I'd spend the bucks for that one. It was set at the same length and there was a very noticable difference in speed. My Zippkits pipe was falling off badly in the turns at 12-3/4", this one didn't.

Receipts somehow fly out the window on the way home from the LHS. I used to have UPS deliver stuff to where I work so I could get those in past momma.

I just got in under a C-notes worth of parts from Zippkits late this morning so you know what I've been up to. A few more things for the skiff and dug out a little .12 nitro 'rigger to throw back together to kill time with.

I'm debating on getting a new pipe, I really don't want to spend a lot more money.

Just use the one that you have for now. I saw your thread over on the Dock, good advice there.

I might just change the header to a 90 to keep it off the radio box. Make it easier to tape. Ron would you be able to tell me how big the prowl is for a zenoah ez start, I'm not sure if my mount has a big enough hole.
