Guys what would you recommend on a Novarossi P5XLT plug? the place that I raced is tropical weather which is 80-90's & hopefully can make it to the Philippines Big Event next year anyway ... this is gnna be my first time to try the Novarossi Motor which I heard a lot of good things ,I got the motor from the other site which is 3/4 gal. and last thing about the shim? too which I have no idea how many shim do I need ,i will be using the 20% for now ..until the 30% fuel gets here ,please any input /suggestion , thank you..

If you are running 20% in high humidity/high heat tropical weather i would highly recommend lowering head shimming by removing only the copper .20mm head shim (normally that would be alot but 20% ,high heat ,high humidity)

Hope fully your engine is in great shape

Quick question. I got a P5 and want to put a LCG head on it. Are the BTT and Keep Off heads the same bolt patterns? Its going to get bead blasted so it doesn't matter what it says. Mainly, I want it to sit lower so its under the roof line on the body.

If anyone has a used one that is still straight, let me know. Don't care about scratches, just straight fins...

The block needs to be machined for the lower head.

They are both full cnc billet pistons ,one is the enlarged exhaust surface area (11) and the other is the older (10 which is more preferred imho)one

may i ask which head shims to add or retract for running the novarossi (stock engine)

with an 8 or 9mm venturri

with werkz blend 30 % nitro

c6tgc plug

stock shims are 2 x .30 and 1 x .20 = .80 total

Leave shimming , if you want to change anything ,get some .10mm and replace the .20mm with .10 for .70mm
