Yep Jon, Pingel looks to be well made, is a must running Methanol. I got the Methanol-Nitro rated one just in case I happen to run 10% Nitro on the last day at Lake G next year.

More progress on the left pipe.

The work you did on those angle plug heads looked great. It's a good way to reuse burned up standard heads...was a guy on the RGV forum doing that for a while. I have been considering thicker base gasket and no head gasket with an O-ring seal....but no one around my area has much of a clue to do this on my SP heads. That's why I might just break down and get two piece.
Looks like your doing great so far...thanks for the pics :smt023

Great building.

I think this is an Aprilia motor out of a 50cc streamliner. The picture looks very familiar.

The quality is better than the aim of the person holding the camera... :smt002

This looks like a lot of fun, thanks for sharing it. While I was watching the video this caught my eye;

Hey Jon, its quieter than the TYGA's. I think because of the thicker material. Will be just as loud at full noise I think.

Hey heyjoe, yep its a RGV VJ21.
