918's shouldn't need shimming, do you have stock heads or are they milled any? What pushrod length did you use? Thanks.

Scheduled Wedn. 11 am. Only concern I have is I am still running the stocker clutch. I just got back from a run w/ the new spring installed..BTW MAAAAARK at Raging MS ROCKS!...and tryed a grannie launch w/ the Nitto's and did not hold up....I am going to have Mark install the Mcleod soon then schedule the dyno session. I don't want to have to say "I shoulda...."

Angie, if you read this post, thankyou for taking care of me on the non-warranted part (Comp needs to add a limited warranty on the 918's.... which don't break. I am going to post pics of the "bad" spring...it's pretty obvious why it broke so soon. It got QC'd Fri. @ beer-thirty. Where the fault is located it would be hard to see...
Not to overdo it....
TR and RMS...GRASSYASS. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
