I have a question,but don't know where to ask this.
If your connecting rod has play/worn,will the engine lose power??
What are the side effects of a worn connecting rod??
Thanks in advance..

The engine won't hold its tune well. You will be chasing the tune.

Thanks in advance..

your compression ratio and timing will vary erratically, thus tuning and power issues, plus you can burn plugs and damage engine....

Sounds too lean to me. if it starts off running good and looses power after a period of time it may be;

an air leak,
seam on the tank leaking,
exhaust gasket shot,
bad front bearing seal.....

I think I will use the short header in Kissimmee this weekend. The short header will make the most peak power, but it will do it pretty high in the rpm range. The long header makes less peak power, but makes it's peak earlier in the rpm range.

Ok I'm sold .... couple more question tho

1) What fuel do you recommend?
2) What break-in method?
3) Do you have the Novarossi 2630 in stock?
4) When will you get the medium header back in stock?

thanks for all your time ...
