running at my old lcwc cordoba, after sitting over years,, done internal cleaning, rebuild it, no missing parts (shim etc), but runs weird..

its idle quiet good while sitting on starterbox, and screaming top end, but after i gave wide open throttle on straight, the idle still hanging high for about 15 sec,, and its not idle good every coming out from corners (still revving high), tried richen LSN with the same results,, reset everything default, still had no results.
Should i adjust the Mid range needle? any advice will appreciate.

i would suggest to go for a OS too, inexpensive parts, cheap bearings in the market (not proprietary), no complain

again was not a book and didn't really explain was one sentence said using a shorter manifold allows for the pulse wave to return faster allowing the motor to get on the pipe faster that was really it. it just always stuck in my head that way and I use it that way don't think I done to bad over the years.

I love the way u guys went from I'm a retard to oh maybe with different gearing and bla bla bla lol don't be so quick to judge nothing is ever set in stone because novarossi says use it ??? lol

Reds is describing the whole pipe/manifold combo, not just the manifold. ;)

nitrovein wonder why they just don't make it one unit right? why weld it to this manifold or that one, it would be cool if it was just one unit together no? I mean like one mold and for the s version as well... maybe this could be setting a new trend in pipes.... have to wait to see pricing also will be interesting !!

And the description is likely wrong. Long manifold/exhaust system = better low end. Short manifold/exhaust system = better top end. This is nothing new. It has always been this way.

And the welded manifold to the pipe? Eww!! :(

I wonder... A tech inspection makes it more difficult to look inside...... On the other hand reaming the 4 small holes in the cone is also very difficult....
Also in the past this was tried as wel end the exhaust did break.

But just trying another manifold can not happen, it will not be cheaper and for sure you will have less controll and for sure less options like using non conical or other brand manifolds.
