What clutch are you running? If you don't have one get a ceramic clutch. They are expensive but they last that much longer so the cost works out abuot the same in the long run. The advantages are not having to change the clutch so often and when it does die it is much less likely to overheat the shaft and bearings. I say this because a stroked motor with pipes is going to be a lot of grunt and you will go through the clutches fairly quickly.
I'm building it strong enough to pull ME out when I get stuck!

A clutch comes with the 30.5 so we'll see how she goes then I'll take your suggestion and go ceramic

It's a boy then! I hope mine performs, I'm paying for the best.

These things are so easy to work on. They are black holes of money pits but I am having a blast building this thing.
