    LR thrust

    With the car up on the bars, accelerating off the corner… Are both LR bars “thrusting” into the chassis or is one trying to thrust into the chassis and one trying to pull away? If the second is true,...

    RR chain limiter too tight

    What kind of handling issues would you expect if your RR chain was too tight on a tacky/rough track? Could it cause the car to almost feel rigid on the RR on throttle and cause the car to bounce real...

    Thanks billet. I’ve found the pullers online but they are pretty pricey. I’ll pull the tail shaft before I buy one. Just figured I’d ask incase someone had a trick to getting them out.

    Specs I looked up for that intake show an RPM range of 4000-8000. Wouldn’t that kill my lower end torque coming off the corner since I have to run a 7000 RPM limit?
