NOVAROSSI Engine thread....

got a ? yesterday i was at the track and was having problems tuning motor it always seemed like bottom end was lean. it had that 3-4 second high idle rev when letting off the gas. now with that being said it was only like 30 degrees out and i was running a c6tgc. would have went hotter to see if that was the problem but i did not have any nova plugs and shop only had the c6tgc. could this be why i would be having the brief erratic high idle?

So what would be better, to have the washer behind the flywheel and use less shims inside the bell in the inner bearing or leave as it.
From a maintenance/failure point of view, which would last longer, thinking the 0.1mm shims may need changing more often?

I didnt use the washer behind the flywheel, coming from an 8ight, the mbx7 flywheel seemed to stick out a lot so I didnt use the washer.

I do not use the shim behind the flywheel. Some time ago, fore some reasson i used a lot of front enginebearings. Shim got cone somehow and damaged the front seal on the bearing. Was not the mugen clutch, but i still do not use the shim
