Monty, thanks for getting that 2084 pipe to me so quickly! Can't wait to try it out this weekend. I'm going to compare it's performance to the 053 with the same header on my +4, and also see what mileage impact there is. Thanks again buddy, hope to see you get down here for some racing.

Will do! A few of us are talking about coming up north and racing with you guys this summer. I have relatives in Aloha, so a family trip with some racing on the side might just fly with the wife.

m5 is almost exactly the same as p5 , i like the 9886/41021 (dynamite 086hs) for buggy , 2084ss/41021 for the truck

the 9901ss also works very well in the buggy with the 5 port

Hey bud, can you tell me what size of set screw is used for the carb barrel collar? A friend lost his today and I gave him a set screw that just happened to fit. It got me thinking that I don't have any of those. Yikes. LOL.



OK it's called the Ball Snap set screw. That doesn't sound pleasant.....think about it.

Hey man
 
I ran my p5xl today with the fresh tko ceramics, it was nice. I put the 101 short round header on the 9853ss pipe and oh my, the dynamite short round header is not the same. The nova header fits so much better, doesn't bend, and seems to give the engine more top end, or was it the bearings, whatever it was the 808 and I were happy today, race is tomorrow, wish me luck, and thanks for all your advice Monty and friends....

Uses 110 volt AC power for now. Clean the head off your engine if dirty before using the comp heat.
