I do have a question. This is my first real (race) engine. I notice when it warms up it has a "tingy" sound. Is that normal? I have heard that sound in real race engines.

I am running novarossi short manifold and a pipe...
Yes, its normal. The Reedy has a different sound from other motors. Once you hear it, you will know it.
