Well, I got 5 passes in, but now have what I found is an ignition issue. Motor starts to break up pretty bad over 1/2 throttle...........soooooh, ran all weekend pretty much at half throttle trying to find the issue.

We tried a new carb ( dale cubic dominator) thought maybe the SV1 was the issue, tried 16 volt battery setup (from twin 12 volt yellow tops) to increase spark........no avail.

Come to find out the ignition system is maxxed out, and the coil is severely overloaded, and getting weaker every run. What I failed to realize is that cylinder pressures play a HUGE part in how much spark is required!!!!!!!

I don't really want to post, but my et's dont matter at this point until I get it resolved, but it did go 5.80 to the 1/8th at one point so far, and it goes straight!!!!....... Very Happy

Here is a pic.......whole new ride.............25.5 chassis with 29.5 x 10.5's.......with bars... Embarassed
