I use the stock hanger from Kyosho. It's the straight one that you hafta bend to your liking. And fitted perfectly.

Last question I hope, I got the pipe all mounted and I started to take the engines apart to make sure they had the right head shims in them and all clean inside and I had a very hard time getting the head off of 1 of the engines because of the flat head scres that it has but managed to get it off. The next one I was able to strip out 3 of the 4 screws and break the tip off of a screw driver. WHO puts these together that the head needs to be so tight you have to twist that hard, I mean really.

So I guess my question is how do I get the head off now? I have never had this problem and a little irratated about the situation.

Way to tight on the cooling head screws Trinity but other then that they look great and I cant wait to break it in today.

Toughtrax - you dont have to take the engine apart. it is checked here for the correct head shims. If you dont have the correct size flathead screwdriver it will strip out the screw and/or break the tip of your driver off.

Chad: It's all good man I went out and bought a new screw driver to fit casue I didn't have one @ the house.

I ran 4 tanks for a quick break in yesterday on the street and man I'm in love with these mills. Temps never where over 188 and LOTS of power, I know it's not race conditions but I almost got 13 min on a tank of fuel with the Big Boy Pipe and OD 97t Plug.

LOT THE EXTECH that is for sure, great work Chad and the rest of the Trinity team behind the new mills

Nice pic wetfoot, I talked to a couple guys and they told me just to use a alen key that they work great and they have the flat side for the set screw to hold onto. So far it's working great.
