Fantom Finally installed

[x_789]

Well I finally got that biatch installed. Here are a couple pics and again thanks to all the fantom boys that helped with the crank issue. X

Oh almost forgot I also installed my new AE Pipe and Duratrash Big Tube Header. Notice the new ae pipe has the mount piece on the end. All I did was take about 3/8 off the header and it fits great. Almost for got new pipe has a lip on the inlet also. X

P.S. Car God these are what pictures are supposed to look like CLEAR so people can see them

You may want to make a holder for your airfilter so it doesn't flopp around and get caught in your spurr or linkage.
Looks clean!

CarDog should contact you for help with pictures.

Good engine choice X!! I'm sure you will in fact like it. Nice pics too. Now only 1 thing is missing. Dirt. Its too clean.

Well I am heading out to break her in this mourning and then going to the park to bash all day after that. X

Almost forgot. I got the new absc sleve and piston and they breakin instructions say to run bumping at half throtle to get motor to 230 asap to break in motor because it has to be hotter for new sleave and piston to seat. And then they say run at 230-270 I always run my stuff at 225 to 230 is it gonna be ok over 230 or is it just this new piston type. Let me know if you have the same type . X

Opps almost forgot plug suggestions? this is shorter than everything I got I normally run mc-59 in my other stuff. X

 

[x_789]

I though os 8 were long like the mc 59 because the plug in mine is short?

X...congratulations on making things work with the Fantom.

Enjoy the break in period, it will be frustrating at times, but well worth it in the end. I like the air inlet extension and choice of air filters. I recommend (as Eddy did) the you rig up a filter holder. The first big air you take will bounce that filter right into your spur gear. The cover will take the beating, but the spur may kick the filter right off...that could spell disaster for your new engine.
