Just got my first 'racing engine' and need some advice

I have just bought the Sirio XXX and for unknown reasons it came without it's manual
My question is about breaking it in
What plug should i use for breaking it in? also do i need to use Sirio plugs only?

Thank you

Default New to Sirio XXX V,

Guys thinking of getting a Sirio engine from running Picco based engines, I read somewhere I can use Picco plugs on the XXX V is that correct ?

What pipe would you recommend for that engine, is the engine easy to tune and give good fuel mileage.

Also is the engine suited for tight tracks with few straight ?

thanks all

i would recomend using sirio no 7 , they work the best of any brand of plug,
and they are freaking awsome on any track tight or open , you will be happy

Default Extech modded .24

Does anyone have info on this engine. I would like some input on gearing , Plugs , and fuel. I'm putting it in the Inferno GT. It came with the big boy off-road pipe, but if you know of a good pipe, I would like to hear from you. I do have a JP-2 I could use , but I'll buy what I need.

Hey guys,

I ran the sirio clutch for the first time competitively over the weekend. Managed to qualify 3rd and finish 2nd at the Queensland champs.

I was just wondering if people can share there clutch settings for this clutch.

I didnt have much time to muck around with the clutch and a destroyed bearing in the clutch during quali cost me a couple of heats.

In fairly high traction I ended up running .7 on the nut with a .5 gap.
