apologies for all the questions. hehe.

i have ordered one from Amain hobbies with free shipping and the $25 coupon code discount.

what would be a good pipe to use.

has anyone ran a Roma with a 2058 pipe? how do you like it? im currently running a 2096/41021 but the pipe has some scuff marks on the writing and may not pass scrutineering. so looking to buy a new pipe to match. wanted to try the 9886 but its not ifmar approved.

and could i use o.s plugs as in the o.s p3 p4 and p6

Nova #6 is the idea plug for it...however if your looking to run OS plugs , use the P4 with 30%......

That is always a loaded question

They are in the good runtime department imo

bluexile67 12-23-2012 09:55 PM

are the nova plugs better quality? like have ya used a series of each plug nova and o.s if so which last longer usually.

and i heard there are like iridium plugs on the market would these be a better alternative to a standard plug?

thanks guys. i cant run the 9853 or 9886 pipe. need it to comply with the regulations. damn all this regulations. i guess im just gonna buy the 2058, try it and see what happens.

one more question for all you engine gurus. i got my replacement P/S/R for my roma (thanks CRE) and just wondering if its best to break it in with the older conrod or break in the engine with all new P/S/R.

i've read somewhere that people replace the conrod after break in as they stretch. not sure how far the truth is.

thanks and Merry Christmas all
