dajogejr Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'm not trying to be a smart ass...please don't take it that way (I don't know how to type to show my tone or attitude) I'd bet if you talked to 10 of the top builders, 9 of them (one of them might be hungover) would tell you that 80:1 is a bad idea. There is also research showing oils (all, conventional and synthetic) will make more power all the way up to 16:1...after that, the increase is negligible. I know your drag bikes are on gas, for two reasons... They wouldn't last at 80:1 on methanol and amsoil doesn't make a premix compatible with methanol.

Fast-Fibers Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 No worries about the tone haha I take this as a discussion not an arguement. And yes my bikes are on gas and I never said that everyone should run 80:1 but that is what I run. Like I said my little 350 ran for 3 years that way with no problem and the only reason I tore it down was because the clutch basket exploded. This motor made 91HP on NMotions dyno and ran a 4.42 in a stock chassis at atoka. I guess my point is that I use amsoil 1: becuase i can get it for a good price and 2: because I use less oil. I have also talked to some guys that ride snomos that run it at 100:1 with no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
