    Best Exhaust/Tuned pipe for Savage 25(The truck after the Savage SS)

    Stay away from all the rear exhausts they're junk. I don't think you can go wrong with the BUKU - I'm running one with a Tsais header - I don't think this combo can be beat.

    The temp in SAVAGE X 4.6

    After break in the engine is usually leaned out - this leads to an increase in rpm which tends to engage the clutch - what is usually happening is that when you hit the brakes the clutch is still hooked-up resulting in the engine stalling.

    Glow Plug and Engine Temp

    I live in Florida and am pretty much at sea level, temps around here run in the upper 80's to lower 90's - when I tune the truck (Savage X running BUKU pipe) it seems to run best a little on the lean side but my engine temp goes up to about 275 - would going to a colder glo plug help pull the...

    Slipper Clutch

    I was wondering how tight to tighten the slipper clutch ? I guess the easiest way to figure it out is how many threads are sticking out after you tighten the clutch. Any info would be great. Thanks.

    Savage Hop Ups for this Weekend

    OK, I've got everything installed. It took me about 10 hours. Not sure if I like the HPI big bore shocks - they look like they are going to hit the A-arms. Don't like the way they mount with plastic spacers. Can' wait to get out to the stompin ground tomorrow.
