Well the Pitts muffler came in yesterday and I got it installed. It took a while to get the engine started. It was not pumping fuel so I primed the engine by shooting a little gas into the carb. I then flip the prop twice and she started and ran for a few seconds. I then choked the engine and flipped the prop about 10 times and finally got a pop. I closed the choke and she started on the second flip. I let her run for 10 minutes going from a high idle for mid-range on the throttle. I shut her down and let the engine cool for about 15 minute. I then filled the 16oz tank back up and she started on the 3rd flip without being choked. I ran here for another 10 minutes varying from idle to top end. I have a Xoar 21x10 prop installed and I am getting a good 2000 rpm at idle and 7000 rpm at top end. I only stayed at top end for a few seconds just enough to get a good rpm reading. So far I am very please with this VVRCRCGF 56.
