I am trying to find out what type of Novarossi i have:
It really looks like an RS12S1X , except for a bit different casting and this one has three mixture screws no lettering on top of cylinder head and a big M (maybe mugen?) on the front of the carb. I can post a picture if needed.

Check if the sleeve sits on top of the crankcase (MT12) or flush (Mr12)

That's why I love Mielke's chrome plating.
My pipe is a year old and look like new

Hey guys,
I am running a N12LS3 on my 710. A new track opened with a fast long straight and also fast curves. Should I be using any head shims for better performance? If yes, how many mm thickness? Weather here is around 30 Degrees Celsius. Any recommendations? Thanks for the help.

Plug help?
I have a NSR12S5. I'm running on the east coast in a slew of heat & humidity (85-95 degrees F and above). I have a few novarossi plugs, but an not sure should I be running a hot plug (CF5, I think) or colder (CF7). Any thoughts?
Also, I'm trying to break this new p/s in. I seem to be having a few carn problems that I can't figure out. It will run fine, then it seems like the fuel line looses pressure. I can see justa bit of fuel right by the carb inlet, but nothing else is coming thru the line. I checked the pipe, lines, and tank for leaks, and didn't find anything. I thought it could be I need to richen the low end up a tad, but I'm not sure. Any thoughts?

C5TC -C8TC, the last C meaning "Caldo" which is Italian for hot. These plugs have a short body and heat up quickly
C5TF - C8TF, the F meaning Frigo= Cold. These have a longer body which heats up slower and dissipates heat.
When I was racing in Atlanta, I always used C5TF up to 90 degrees and C6TF above that.
the 7-8 plugs are for .21 engines.

So, where can i get parts for it, like a piston/sleeve or conrod?
From what ive read these are almost the same as other Novarossi engines, but which one? the RS12S1X?

Just how tight are these novarossi engines?
I was getting a used one from a local club member who re-pinched it and i could barely turn it over with vicegrips on the flywheel. The flywheel actually slipped on the crank even though i tightened the clutch nut real good. I killed TWO starter boxes trying to break it in. (preheating also of course)
I am curious because i bought a new one (rs12s1x) and it should arrive in a few days.
