i got my TC 926 racing cam today and it said to use 20 W 50 mn synthetic oil
does anyone know any brands that carry this
and i got a 425 kit and the cam
i have a fmf powercore 4 pipe and a k&n air filter
people on here told me to use 170 main jet and a 42 pilot
and take off the air box lid
i dont like the idea of taking off the lid
due to dirt water and mud
has anyone had problems doing this
what about drilling holes can i get the same performance
with protection

Your best bet would be to Call Tom and ask what Oil he runs. He is very helpful. Is the 926 Cam the XC or MC Cam? Also Tom could tell you what Jetting to run with the Lid on to get it Dialed In. I want to know how you like the 425 Piston and Cam though.

i did run the red cap ..

but the next time i had to go change the oil they gave me the black bottle with the red cap for 2.99 so i think i am just oing to use that oil cause that is cheaper ... or less someone thinks i should run something else...?
