Another way or gaining runtime is going from conical to straight tube manifolds, but you'll lose power. Check if someone can bring you a Nova 9886 pipe and a short straight manifold and see if runtime improves too.
Hey, yeh bottom end is definately lean..as it caused it to flame out a few times...so I will richen the bottom a tad and play with the HSN tomorrow..and let you know how I go!

Anyone know what the optimum temp is to run up top on this engine? as the head doesnt really get hot at all..just warm..
