Is the shipping price included in the engine price? I can't find anywhere on the website where its listed. The shipping and handling page is empty.

Just wanted to say thank you Monty for taking care of my Carb for me. My fat little fingers do not get along well with those little O-rings. Appreciate what you do.

I'm about to buy the new Plus-4 BTT but want to know if it needs the new exhaust gaskets or can I use the old style gaskets also?

You can use the old style gasket if you are in a pinch, but the new ones are alot better and last much longer.

What would a 9901 do for a P5XLT running 25% and a 6mm restrictor in buggy? How would the engine characteristics change from a 086?

heres what i would recommend on a p5xlt in buggy with a 9901ss

p5xlt shimmed to .65mm , 7mm restrictor , 9901/41021

from 086hs to 9901ss equals much better runtime smoother power transition much better runtimes and a touc hotter temps as it is a more rstrictive pipe

So then it would seem like I am more or less where I want to be with the 086 on my P5XLT? The 9901 wont do a whole lot for me it looks like.

Ideally I would like a smooth power band with a good mix of bottom and top and good runtime.
