The two heaviest weights in the kit with the two heaviest springs were still above 5500RPM, and the 2-3 shift at part throttle was happening way too early, so I resorted to grinding down the original weights. Now I've got it shifting at around 5300RPM, and the part throttle shifts are spaced apart nicely. My wife snapped this picture as she was coming home from work yesterday evening.
Hi Pat,
How come you have Blue plates, rather than the Black/Gold ones?
Old 919 used to sport Black/Gold plates when I bought it. The military made me register my truck and get a driver's license in the state that was my Home of Record. My parents had moved to Arizona, so that was the new ''Home.''
I had to turn in my Calif. [10 566 A] and get an AZ plate [2JY150] at the MVD [not DMV].
