Do you know what RPM they are going to have you limited at?

I'm going to set the limiter at 6200, but im sure max that i will push the go stick is 5800-6000. I'm setting it up for reliability and to be able to cruise in the 70s and 80 with occasional bursts. obviously I want to see a top number but that's not my core goal.

Rob, stay away from the 34's. Awful hard to get on plane (even after Brett did all his magic).

What a nice guy Dave is - he just rebuilt an XR for me and met me at his place on a Saturday to drop it off. I am assuming the Cig I saw on the lot was yours. He does great work, I am sure you will be happy with the results.

This looks like a great build and upgrade. Can't wait to see the final product.
I've got a set of labbed 32s if you are interested. Perfect condition. $1100

Sweet project, I'm interested how the Imco's work with the XR lowers. Looking at upgrading to the SCX drives and if I can keep the lowers that would simplify things.
