You sure do a VERY good job with those motors. Maybe I should send you one of my 295 Nitro motors and see what you can do with it? Keep up the good work.

aaen does those custom pipes $$$$ o well if you want play$$$, here,s a tip there a lot of polaris pipes used out there with a little massaging will work pretty nice go for the stuff with large diameter center sections and short headpipes

WOW red19lite this, what you are doing is quite impressive!! on behalf of all the Rupp L/C lovers out there "THANKS" I imagine it was quite the undertaking to get the ball rolling on all these new parts, I see you got 340 rod kits avail too! nice to see all the referance pics , measurments etc from the Chap to Rupp you spent alot of time keeping this topic updated I'd say it should be a sticky ;D

Hmmm...Yes I would think aaen pipes would be small. The new technology is defiantly large volume. Someone must make something good. Im sure they will cost $800 to $1000 dollars for new pipes. That is how it is if you want to go fast.
P.S. I like it out front in the clean air.

Holy intake duration!!! Looks like more of a drag race mod in my opinion. Change the pistons every few runs maybe. Interesting???

Looks like pimple piston had short reach spark plugs in it as well.A good example of what not
to do.
