    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Yes, you can go to 42.5 without issue. You would just be better off Power Jetting them or buying 44s if you are doing a 1500 or bigger.

yeah wonderd about that, if I bought 44 s perhaps then bore them out. I am thinking (besided expensive) 48 s may be bit too large, if 44 s open up also 2.5 46.5 s may be just right for a 1500 plus engine Thanx Ray Mike
 
Power jetted 44s will work VERY well on a 1570 so I can't see a need to go bigger if you aren't running a Pro Stock or Pro Mod motor.

Hey Ray hows that Epoxy work inside a Carb?? Is it super fuel proof??? Thanx Mike
 
The Splash Zone epoxy, by Z Spar is what I use & has been no issue with gasoline.
Ray.
 
I run 40's on my 1500, i should put 44's but i don't want to but any was i have a whole new top end waiting in the wings and will prob retire teh 1500 befor long. If i were to bore the 40's what's involved with that process? or is it as simple as it sounds?
Phil

oh ... and hey mike!
 
It's madness everywhere mike. Now ... how to bore lectrons? or should i leave em alone and just pile more nitrous in... :D
 
Phil most bang for the Buck, bore them out like to 42 mm .! , i think epoxy may be required where it breaks through AND pour the Nitrous to it. Keep eye on the crank runout, Indicate the ends occasionally for T.I.R. But I bet roger did your crank properly. We have trouble getting good work here. Are you going to run a 200 or 250 shot? That ought to get er in the low 7s maybe hi 6? But...may blow the f.... up in a spectacular fashion, Kevlar underpants perhaps!!!Ha HA But it will run strong as it has in the past with even more oomph. I think you could benefit from 46 mms maybe smaller 44 s ,44 s seem cheaper buy them and bore to 45 or 45.5 range then pour the NOS to uit, Take care buddy I been making some crazy stuff in the machine shop, Still working also ha ha No more neutrino dar matter research though!! Now tool room machinist fixture jig and stuff machinist , Lots of fun, Take care when you coming for a visit? Mike
