Check out the deals @ www.houstonsengineservice.com


Ho ho ho merry christmas :cool:


I tried looking for pics & specs none seem to match up. Got the thing for 25 with a jp1:blush: needed a large bearing cause of a lil rust got two cer. TKOs coming. Not much more than 2- 3 gals on it. Should be in it's prime. I'm having lots fun with the n21bf limited & some ths pipe I had laying around. There are so many new 21s out now you can get some sweet deals on ebay. I have alot of NR based motors and run boats as well so if get a lemon and there is a few good parts I can use,It's all good.
Well see how it runs next weekend.

I'm going to try that on sunday. 9853 and 41021. I'll post up and let you know what I think. I tried the 9886 with 40121 and like i said earlier it had good bottom, a weak mid and plenty of top. My track only has 100 foot straight. the rest is turns and jumps. the 9853 and 41021 might just be the ticket. I will also try the 9853 with the 41020 as well as the 9886 with the 41020. Damn, I need to write this down before i go out there.:(

wsouldnt bother with the 9853/41020 , i can tell you right now you wont like it but on the other hand if you dont try it for yourself you wont learn either. i cant seem to figure out how you think the 9886/41021 doesnt have any pull ???? that pipe f'in rips the wheels off :confused:

i love the 86 based pipes ;)

how much fuiel do you have on your plus4 ? hope you got over a gallon so you can really see what it can do

Is the 9853/41020 combo just all Low End and just going to spin the wheels?
The 9886/41021 combo is the only pipe I had at the time for a brand new nova.214c. It only has a 1/2 a gallon through it. maybe that's the problem?

At only 1/2 gallon of fuel on the engine I wouldn't really be worrying about high paerformance as much as a good proper break in and running easy for now . Don't try to lean it out too much just yet , when the engine is happy it will let you know . After it drops its nuts then you can get it race tuned . Trust me dave , 9886/41021 has bookoo power and crazy top . 9853SS/41005 and 9886/41021 are two of my very favorite combos 9853/41021 is pretty good but lacks in the rpm dept.

The only thing I can say is try them all if you got the time but don't pass judgement on anything until you have a little more fuel through the engine .

Happy motorin',
Monty

monty is the 41005 like the os 2050 mark pavidis version header?

i hope it is..cause if im not feeling the 41021 with the 9853 pipe then i can just switch them out, and save some $$ at the same time

I agree. Just getting impatient. I'll slow my roll!

It is very similar to the one that comes on the 2050

How much fuel did you get through the engine?

I'm at a gallon now.

Ran the 9853 and 41021 combo and loved it. We already talked about the pipe combo on the Nova .21 plus 4 thread.
I took another look at our track's straight and it's only 70 feet long not 100' feet as posted earlier. That's why I think the 53/021 combo works better for me than the 86/021 combo. There is another track about 45 minutes away that has a 200 foot staright. The 86/021 combo will work there, so I'll keep all the pipes.

Um ya , I would say that the 53/021 combo would def. Be your ticket with a 70' straight .

Wow , that's a pretty short track , our local indoor is bigger than that .

You will see more of what the pipes do when you get on the bigger tracks for sure dave.

I haven't tried the 020 header yet. Maybe next week. I have a race saturady, so I'll stick with the 53/021 combo for now.
