idle setting at race tune will be around 3/4 turn out from just closed on the slide barrel
i dont remember the "specs" per se but if i remember correctly it was the short stroke big bore design that i am pretty sure the vspecs were designed after
( dont quote me but i am pretty sure) , it might have been the sbk? anyway good engine , use it until its done as they are not compatible parts wise with any engine out there today

holy smokes if youre happy with that clutch setup i would continue with using it , if not i would probably try three blue aluminum (losi) shoes with gold and one carbon (losi) with green and make sure you have the good clutch bell

Hey Monty, just got done setting up my clucth,3 alum w/gold,1 carbon w/green. the 3 alum are Kings heads 7075 if it makes any difference(it's all I have right now) would running 3 alum shoes cause an inbalance on the crank?just wondering.
#3678
yes the 7075 shoes do slip quite a bit which cause a lot of aluminum galling up inside the clutch bell . make sure everything is either fresh , new and scuffed in or used and cleaned very well

btw , i am not a losi clutch expert so you might wanna ask about a medium heavy clutch setup in the losi threads

here is a link to all of the losi clutch set ups, that you would find in your manual

I need some good advice on the fuelline and exhaust tube.
My engine runs very rich, with a full tank, but when it reaches half or quarter-tank, it goes screaming.
I have a short length of fuelline but with a filter on and about 8 inch exhaust tube.
what can I do to reduce this problem?
Thanks

There is no leak, I have tryed with 2 different tanks, and when I put a screw into the end of the fuelline, and put presure in the exhausttube it holds presure until it gets so high the fuel cap pops up and let presure out
