I got an engine from a guy on here that was modded by HE'S. It is a Nova 21 Plus 4. I am running 30% Byrons but I need to know what shim and plug I should run in it. Right now it has no shim???

I am sure it has the stock shims, it should anyway

If so leave it, run any of these plugs, novarossi c5tgc, c6tgc, odonnell 97t

Who did you get the engine from? is it in good shape?

I looked at it again and it does have the stock shims. I got it from AndyD8 I believe and it was in good shape until this weekends club race... Something changed since my last practice and it was cutting in and out - bogging and then taking off. Some of the guys were saying I had an air leak so I am gonna take the carb out and seal it as well as teh back plate and carb screw.

Any other thoughts?

Houston - how much do you charge to look an engine over if the sealing it doesn't work?

Monty,

Ran our first race of the season at the local track. That XLT is running perfect. Made some guys want one. LOL. Still got that C6T plug I put in there in Az. Got to clean it up from the race, but still looking good for now. I did get to see Sy run his. Man I think mine might have to get some love. Looked real good and seemed to have the right power everywhere.

Saw something about a new Nova pipe on Neo buggy, any info? Just wondering.
