Alphabetically somewhere between atrocious and unacceptable. In redneck espanol "No bueno for caca" is probably close. Did a quick Google search and a Honda G300 7hp lawn mower engine uses 7mm rod bolts. Fills one with a warm and fuzzy all over doesn't it.

Anybody know for sure if the Carillo rods come with ARP2000 bolts (220,000 psi) or do they use the same ARP3.5 bolts (270,000 psi) that come with the Pauter rods?

Can you drop the pan without dropping or lowering the sub-frame?

That's one of the reasons when I went to ARP they said, "we don't sell stuff that small and that's not a rod bolt". I'm feel better I replaced them, because I was hitting 28 psi on those stock toothpick

Just lower the front of the exhaust and you can get them from dropping the oil pan. Pretty simple

The manic tune switches you to a linear throttle map. I think that should help?.

Ya I'm sure that will help a lot because it's hard to feather throttle when the little bit of throttle and your hitting 10 psi

At Streets of Willow (there's a video of it earlier in the thread)... I had no brakes so took it easy... But Stage 3, Map B, tuned by MarioKart. I had cooling issues (no meth at the time) at Auto Club Speedway, but that was a semi-oval... I replaced the thermostat housing shortly thereafter. I track a couple times a month... always a blast!!!

Yes, linear throttle is a lot easier to manage in a turn...

I knew you would be a great candidate for Meth. All I have is upside to tuning a Meth kit.
One day when I get some 17" track wheels I will join you.

I know that they are a "MINI" but a "few"? What, one for each foot...

Sorry, I get that sort of thing all the time from the truck and SUV drivers at work and this just seemed like a great "straight line" that I couldn't pass up...
Hope you guys have fun
