I'm down to take her for a spin next time I'm out there. The plug looks like you need more miles to tell, also look down the middle into the recessed area to know how it's running.

Greetings:

I recommend you fab up a bracket to support that big carb. Otherwise road imperfections will crack the rubber manifold.

363 max temp is not bad. How long of a run did you go? And how do you like the new pipe power?

That was about a 40-min ride, with short blast at the End.. Love the New Scorp pipe, Not much louder then old pipe but Noticable Power gain..
A little more Carb tuning then onto Trans Tuning...
