Looking at getting the Plus 4 team with HES mod
I drive Mugen buggy and like a nice even power delivery but not a big bottom. What pipe and header you recommend I used OD97T plugs in my first Plus 4 I run 25% fuel with 12% oil (10,2) what would be a good combo and any other info about the above that you would recommend. |

TBH, I never let it run out of fuel, I just pit at those times and the tank was close to empty. Should I try a 6.0 or 5.5 restrictor next? Or leave it alone? Its still a whole lot of motor for a buggy. I want to get the hang of this 5pt, Its bad A. I dont want to have to invest in a different pipe though.
i have never once claimed OS plugs are not made with quality , that they are :nod: |
Thanks for your advice Houston.
Will be placing an order with you soon. i can't get Byrons race fuel so will have to give it a go with my current fuel. So you recommend 30% fuel to 25% ? |

can i do a squish test with lead nova engines come with twox.30mm aluminum shims and one .20mm copper in most all the engines now . they have been shimmed for 30% from the factory for american market on most all engines produced now . hope this helps alpha engines head buttons are probably machined a little different i would imagine :tire: |
thankyou
so am i right in saying that a nova p4 with no shims the piston will hit the head, and are u saying that the US nova motors come with the extrra shim installed and u dont get the exta in the box why carnt u run 30% with .6 .7 clearance will it detonate, or u can u just carnt run the higher temps gee the alpha must have some clearance out of the box |
Whats the plus of running a p5 crank in a 3 port NR?

Hi Monty,
Do you like the 2084 and what are the characteristics of it? Thanks |
Congrats
On the Wins Monty. I just wanted to thank you for recommending the TKO ceramic bearings for my p5. After they broke in, a little tight at first, my engine screams. I can't believe the bearings makes so much difference in the power of an engine. Thanks again man....
