    Only 6250? You were only getting about that one that dle in Dallas. I had to retune my 55 because It was running so bad and dead sticking. Ran fine on the low side. Ignition was gong out. Swapped it out and good as new. It seemed to be getting worse and worse Got it topping out...

    Correct, the sticks in the corner was the way we use to tumble the crap out of 42" slicks. There is a youtube of Joe flying a 74 with a camera view. You can see it there.

    Agree, but my blood is on a one way route, what goes out, stays out. The thought of running through the filter and back in creeps me out. Even though I'm up about 6 gallons total. :) I mainly do it for the free t-shirts!

    3DHS 87" Extra 300 SHP

    Somewhere I thought I had a picture but can't find it. I'll try and remember and shoot one. But it's simple. Drill a hole in the collar while it's in a vice. The collar is fairly soft. Locate a couple small cotter pins to get the hole size down, maybe 1/32 or so, not to big. Then lock...

    Good deal, seemed like we were on the same page. Now Joe does them different from all, upline, sticks at 11 and 1, then very quick timing get the left stick to 7, and the right stick to 12.
