Coming tomorrow i have

Futaba 4PKS Radio System

K&N Filter with stack

MSD Wire & NGK Plug

-- EDIT---

Ive sent a email to VRC seeing if they wanted to work together in making a header pipe for a direct bolt in pipe for distribution.

If they don't answer back or aren't interested. ill get steel tube and weld one up. Right now the copper pipe / hose clamps work good.

I compared that battery to my killer rc Lipo pack...and I couldnt believe I considered that battery!! Don't get me wrong its a good battery but if you want a phenominal battery get the killer rc lipo!!!! and the micro splitter helps too!!

 

[GoffeeRedCat]

Niice truck too!!! Love the pipe!!

Like what you did with the pipe!

 

[GTS 666]

Another pipe option would be great for everyone.

I agree. No contact from VRC yet. looks like ill have to weld up a custom pipe.

[update]

Trucks all together and ready to drive for tomorrows group meet up.

 

[Courage68]

Well truck died out after burning 1/8th tank. and wouldnt start.

Found out both gaskets on the carb are not keeping a seal and started leaking fuel.

Ordered up a Walbro WT-990 and a manifold with silicone gaskets.

 

[Deluge]

Bummer. Let us know how it works out!

Those are sooooooooooooooooo good.

990 Carb is in and now the car starts in 1-3 pulls every time. No bogging when flooring it . "stock carb would bog like a sick dog even with tuning"

Question , Should i paint my exhaust pipe orange or another color. Its developing surface rust
