Also a lot depends on the pipe and header you are using. With an S5 in truck your going to need a long header and possibly the 2020 pipe to get that extra grunt you are looking for. Also I know in my 8ight 2.0 truggy I run all aluminum shoes with all gold springs when I need the extra snap, you can try to silver and two golds too, or even all 4 silver.. the shoes will wear faster with all silver but it will really spool up before engaging.

ok thanks im using a 13/50 gearing, it does have extra punch but not quite im using a dynamite 86 pipe, so i could ethier try the all gold spring setup or a longer header.

the engine is on its second gallon.

what would make the, biggest diffrence a longer header or stiffer clutch springs ?

I have a WS7 l2g and was wondering if there is a cheap way to put a better cooling head on it? I want a taller head for better cooling!

Thanks in advance

Honestly, a different pipe will help more than the header or the springs. The 086 pipe is a top end pipe so nothing you do is going to help a lot. 90% of these engines performance comes from the exhaust system, you can have the baddest engine made and with the wrong pipe it will be nothing but a headache.

If you can't get a better pipe start with a longer header if you already have one, if not try the springs first since they are the cheapest option.

yea il try the all gold spring setup, first if that doesnt work il take a look at the dynamite 53 pipe.

i race on a big 1/8 track with, techinal turns as you can see in my avatar pic on the left.

The dynamite 53 pipe will help your situation. Maybe the spring change will help enough to save you some money on a new pipe. When I ran an S5 a few years back the best I ever got it to run was with the RB2020 pipe but they are hard to find and kind of pricey.

Well I ran the Rally10 for a few tanks in my practice car this weekend and WOW!!! The Rally is not going to make a very good buggy engine as the power delivery is INSTANT and insane... tires turned into pizza cutter out of every corner and and just sounded angry!!! I did run the 2018 pipe on the engine so maybe a 2045 will tame it down a bit but I am thinking this might be a better truggy alternative.
