Hi Jack
I have not seen scrappy give any discounts... But many members buy from his online store on ebay, they report better prices...

Hey Jack
Fawkes is doing well, starting fast, as i fine tune him and he breaks in he gets a little faster.. I'm getting 40 to 45 running 7 grand on the tach... His launch is really good... I was really spoiled when he was a stroker.. But as he gets better I'm getting happier with him, I'm thinking I'm almost at his torque limit...
He is now accelerating up scooter killer hill, not losing any speed.. He's not pulling away like when he was a stroker, but he's is accelerating to about 40 mph on that hill...
Over all he's performing pretty good..

There is an idea I'm playing with in my head, I read Millsc did it.. Ive been wondering about leaving out the carb spacer, I'm seeing it's hole as a restriction compared to the rest of the intake and carb... Carb is 20mm the head intake is 22 mm, and that spacer is small compared to the other two.. Ill wait for a day off to try it... hoping the carb bowl will not hit the engine without it.. |

Can you "bore "the hole a little, maybe with a small sanding drum or something?

I know Millsc is running 50/16 gears, he has to be getting the power to push them somewhere.. This is the only thing I'm really seeing much different between the builds.. I'm running the stock gearing, 17/49 was just too much without the stroker.. |

Makes mewonder if i should hold off on the gearing or not, I just want acomfortable 40-45 mph at a reasonable rpm. I have no need to go much faster than that.I just figure more power with taller gears, and no need to run wot all the time,but the capability is still there for a once on a while 50 mph run

With out taller gears I think 50 mph is pushing it, the size of the variator, the number of rpm's the engine can do, the size of your rear tire are only going to give you so much.. 8000 rpms is the redline and i don't like exceeding it.. So without taller gears I don't see doing 50 mph being a good idea.. At least for Fawkes, but he still has that 10 tire on the back, when I get the bigger tire that may be a game changer... We will see

[replyingto=larry001964]larry001964[/replyingto]Yeah, I have 12"wheels to start with, and 50/16 is not much of a jump from stock, I,ll put em in while the motor is on the bench.

 Thanks guys, I wish i knew that before i phoned in the order. But, by phoning it in,You can save a lot on shipping as opposed to online. My shipping went from 34 to 11 dollars! Of course free is even better. I'll do that next time ;D
