sheerider1026 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 hell yes. adds bottom end, i run mine on +5 Quote
twostroketerror Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Posted February 6, 2008 any certain brand? and how hard to install? Quote
sheerider1026 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 any certain brand? and how hard to install? any brand will get the job done, i use the ricky stator one, its cheap, pretty easy to install, you will need a flywheel puller, they are about 12 bucks.it adds bottom end noticeably, and adds power everywhere, it also makes the motor very snappy and responsive. its well worth getting, Quote
Washburn Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 It will make a very noticable diffrence and since you are already running such high compression (at least 110 Octane Ide assume your running already) Bump it up to around +7 just make sure your running enough octane. Quote
jbooker82 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 I run +8 and 185 psi on 110 octane fuel. Quote
Dark Ranger Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 I run +8 and 185 psi on 110 octane fuel. +8 timing? That's got to be one of the highest advances I've heard of someone using. I only have mine advanced +3 and 170psi. I run 110 octane in mine. I think I need to boost my timing up a little more. I just haven't thought about it since I started running the race fuel. Quote
bigboybanshee Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 I run +8 on my drag bike w/ dyna ignition (175psi), +5 on my trail bike with the stock ignition (160psi). Both are on race fuel I run the cheapest adjustable stator plates you can find on ebay, they're marked -10 to +10, work great. Lightened flywheel would help you out too Quote
chevrolet banshee Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Yes a timeing plate will help with bottem end and make it more snapper, You should go get one on ebay that has the fly wheel puller with it i think you can get one for like $35.00+shipping Chevshee Quote
