I finally have everything for finishing my T-Maxx project. It has a Sirio .18 in it, supposed to have less than a 1/2 gal through it. The head was off when I got it, so I checked it out thoroughly before putting it back together. It's like new, tons of compression so I figured I should start like a new motor and go though a break-in procedure. Does anyone know the factory settings for the needles? I'm sure I could wing it and get by ok, but would rather start at factory. Thanks, Randy
 
I have 2 new in the box right in front of me (one going in my rs4-3 and one for a later project), but i read the instructions and they say:

Break in-
HSN: 7-7.5 turns out
LSN: 2.5 turns out
Mid: Fixed (Do not attempt to remove!)

After break in:
HSN: 6.5 turns out
LSN: 2 turns out

Reccomended glow plug: Nova Rossi #8
Reccomended Fuel: Trinity 20% Monster Horsepower

This was straight off of the instruction sheet that came with the engines. Let me know if you need anything else.
