What is the proper distance between the header and the pipe for the OS 50 & Muscle pipe on a Fury 50.

The clearance stated pertains to the OS WC

Thank you all

Excelence choice

You want to cut the header 1/8 inc. then leave 1/2 inc.between the header and the pipe, use 15% cool power. It is plenty to rock the house.The credit go to Curtis Younblood. You may have to change the coupling more often but they are cheap if you get them by foot.

Thansk for the info. Is the Stock head shim used on the 50? the holes dont seem to match the bold on the 50?

Bladestrike,

The OS 50 with the muscle pipe will run better without the head shims if you plan to use 15% nitro. Proper distance is 1/8 inches between header and pipe. Coupler should be changed every 50 flights. Should be easy to tune with this set up and really put out the power. If your just breaking in the motor, I would suggest the 3 extra ounces of synthetic oil added to the first gallon. Morgan Fuels Cool Power 15% is a great fuel for this set up. Morgan also makes the synthetic oil. I did this to mine and it rocks. (OS 61 WC) All these set up tips I can not take credit for, I have to give them to Conrad "the drag racing & tune pipe king" in Mississippi. I am also running the 9.3 to 1 gear ratio which this set-up seems to like a lot

Is this with the 60 size muscle pipe and header? I'm about to order a Muscle pipe for my OS 50 and need to know exactly what I need to get.
