I don't really care who knows. You know the old saying, If you can't laugh at yourself, then who can you laugh at? Like I told you on the phone, I will NEVER make that mistake again.:lol:

monty, i'm having a weird problem... this only happens at the house (I THINK).. i was trying to break my new engine in and everytime i put it on the starter box and turn the engine over, the light in my refrigerator starts blinking on and off, and the surround sound system in the living room goes all funky. also, my girlfriend was trying to watch her soap opera, and it changes the channel on the TV to 'Monster Jam' on the speed channel. Am i using the wrong fuel?

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Ok, now really.... i got a good deal on a Axe/Rossi 2050 pipe set brand new... i'm putting it on a picco p5 that i just had modded at fusion motorsports. it''s got what looks like a short, round header with it... should i go with that square header you mentioned a few posts back? I'll try it as is, first....i was just noticing that axe rossi sells the 2050 kit in europe with a square header...

Your thoughts are always appreciated.:nod:

dont have any idea what the axe rossi pipe is so i cant really tell ya nasty , if it is like a 53 pipe then yes .

i would definitely try a different fuel , like byrons gen2 ;)

BigNasty 04-01-2009 04:16 PM

gen2 fuel CHECK! got 2 gals:)

the 2050 is just like the os 2050 i think... it's a pretty popular 5 port pipe. it was 40 bucks brand new with the header, so it'll look great on my table in the pits. i'll check out the square header when i get the chance. short med or long?

the 2050 is not one of my favorite pipes on a novarossi engine ;)
