The bore of the cylinder doesn't determine if you run of race fuel or not. It depends on the compression piston you use.

The DG front "bumber" will cause race fuel to be needed.

VP-C12 is a type of racing fuel. It is 108 octane. So yes, you will have to run straight racing fuel. Looking at $8-9 a gallon... good luck with your build.

PS - Take it to a pro...:D

Make sure you put on the purple powerband before you touch the valves. Im not sure if your KFX has it or not, i know the newer ones do. But if you put it on the right way, it adds 10 MPH to the top speed

My comment wasnt being an ***** it was just to basically encourage you to spell bumper right in your sig so you dont come off as an idiot and people can take you seriously...

What they meant was that youll be using a feul called "C-12" thats made by VP Racing Feuls

And it has to run on only that gas...no pump gas, C-12 costs me about 8 dollars a gallon for my 440ex...what fun!:p
