        yea, but its a EURO M30... and its got a short stroke and a big bore, so it rev's nicely already, and taking 10lbs off the flywheel makes it even more rev happy. I will give you a ride when shes done 8)

            lol this one is good Eric, of course it's not going to ping on 91 if it doesn't ping on 87. I think you transcribed your numbers backwards. If not you don't understand what the numbers mean to detonation.


            Edit Hide my head in shame I missed that I thought I read doesn't ping, skulk away and hide in corner.

              "he said it DOES ping, but only because he puts 87 in it"

              when i read that the connection that it is pinging because of the 87 octane fuel.
