Posted 30/11/09 09:41 AM Share Posted 30/11/09 09:41 AM I got standard equipment and rev limit is 6050 not a problem yet...... that in mind theres no real point of revving to 6050 as 5500 is where the ideal shift is anyway.

May need to buy some just for peice of mind. I've ordered my new motor today (FG F6) and Dave brought it to my attention that I could do the oil pump b4 the motor went back in. Unfortunately I spent all (I mean all) of my money on the motor. Edited 16/02/10 09:56 AM by mattyb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might have some info for you.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
