OnlyA2Stroke Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 Ok I received my Noss Machine black head w/ orings and 21 cc domes. I run 93 octane and 32:1 Yamalube, and my elevation is 950+ ft. above sea level and temp @ 90 w/ 80% humidity. I torqued my head nuts to about 22-25 inch lbs.(20 didn't feel snug). I started it after hooking everything back up and adding coolant. Seemed to run hot when I took it for a run. Maybe just ride around on it a bit longer might help??? Well I am also getting ready to take the lid off my airbox so I can run stock K&N filter w/ outerwear. I guess a 290-300 main jet? Well any advice you guys have I can use about what I'm doing would be great... :ninja: Quote
Big Blue Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 They should be torqued to 20 ft/lbs not inch/lbs... Quote
dajogejr Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 Make sure you are torquing them down in sequence. I'd go 10, then 15, then 20lbs to get a good, even torque. Heat cycle it twice (start it up, warm it up, shut it down and let it cool all the way) retorque. Go for a quick ride for a few minutes, retorque 'em again and you'll be good to go... Quote
