re 21 pitch

Steplift20, you are correct, could only get about 4500 rpm out of 21 pitch. Tried 15 x 17 this weekend. Lots better, 5300 or 5400 top end now and of course better holeshot. Running cooler too.

Yep, the compressor, injectors, and everything else on these motors need the good stuff. It burns so little oil, total cost of opti oil vs black max is probably about the same or less.
