The idea of 7/16-20 came from measuring the mating air manifold. It is a 7/16-20 UNFstraight thread, it is not a tapered pipe thread. 1/8 pipe is a bit smaller and the pitch is close so a 1/8-27 pipe

Hi Bud, Not important enough to argue about since both size plugs will do the job, but I did have challenge for those who would insist that 1/8-27 NPT is the correct thread. Screw the air injection m

The wedges can't be inserted any further than the spring's front mounting bolts, so the length is less than you'd think. I am at work now but 3.3" is about right from memory. A bit longer is fine bec

The likely redline for a race 1275 is 7500 rpm, and conservative is 7000 rpm. You can't rev these like the 948's I used to race at 8000 rpm. There may be some guys running 1275's more than 7500 rpm,
