Hey gang,

I've been chatting with another member here about his 416/426 kit he has installed. 10.5:1 comp. He told me he had real bad pinging and needed to run 50:50 mix of race and premium gas.

I live in So Cal and was wondering if anyone had a similiar experience. I'm not sure how I feel about needing race gas even in a small ratio.

Let me hear your thoughts...

Sounds like your buddy's running his bike a little lean. Mine did the same thing after I first put it together. A bigger main soved the problem. Mine runs just fine on 91 octane.

91 is the highest you can buy here in Cali at the pump. 4 gal. of 91 and 1 gal of 110 makes 95 octane.

What size main you running RaptorAZ, is it a Keihin jet or a Dynojet kit?
