We are in our second season running Bandos and have now enjoying some success. We are running up front(2nd - 4th) but are regularly about .1 to .2 off the race winner and top qualifier. We spent most of our first season getting our set-up and lines down and now we need to look at the engine for the remainder of the gap between us and the leaders.
I am good with geometry and setting a car up but am anything but competent when it comes to engines(other than the routine maintenance stuff, oil change, valve springs/lash, spark plugs, etc...) so I am hoping to get some advice here.
I was hoping to get a brief explanation on what people are doing when they are referencing flowing and blueprinting their carbs, what they think the best jets are for hot(over 100 degrees) weather racing are, and the availability of legal carb rebuild kits or performance rebuild kits?
What about spark plugs, I have heard other people using some different ones than those you get from 600 and I am wondering if somoe one is using other than the 7's with some success?
Thanks for any and all help!
Also, if you can add any advice on some of the small things that you may have found to help you get that last .1-.2 of a second!
Thanks Again!!!
