Ok, I need some help with my Killer 9. The motor has a little over 2 gallons on it, I run nitro juice 25%. I'm running it with a 7mm restrictor and the dynamite 053 pipe and a 97T glow plug. Motor has been sealed and bearings were recently changed, put a ceramic in the rear. Motor rips and is fast, but I can't get the bottom end dialed in. It feels rich on the bottom all the time and loads up quickly when idling. I keep leaining the LSN and it get's better, but never get's right before it's too lean. I do the pinch test and it idles right at 3 seconds before it starts to increase in RPMs. I'm starting to think that the 3 second test just isn't sufficient for this motor. When I'm waiting on the start of a main, I'm always concerned it's going to flood and die. When we take off, I smoke everyone out. Should I just contiune to lean on it or what?
