RE: Coming this summer: Black Magic VF3
I'm using the Comp Arf integral gear on mine. I really like it, especially the price. I'm trying to find another alternative, and am just about convinced that I need to start making my own gear.
However just about anything will work, Bolly, ES, you name it. For electric the best gear is the ES long if you can find them. I would contact Ed directly if you want to go this route. Otherwise I'd go with the comp arf integral or impact gear. It was actually designed around the impact gear and then they made the integral gear wider at the top. So, I may have to make new molds on day....or better yet just design my own.

I would start a new thread in this forum: Wanted wrap around header for ST 2300.
Back in the late '90s the ST2300 was an inexpensive alternative to the OS 140RX. Dick Hanson worked with the engine and was very favorably impressed. I ran one without a pump and just a small header tank and had great results, but I did use a tuned pipe. I also used an OS 7D carb. The Black Magic is a large (volumetrically speaking) pattern design compared to the designs of the late '90s and you might want to consider running a tuned pipe.
I know that Johnson made wrap around headers for the ST 2300 and Karl Mueller made custom headers. I am sure there are many of them 'out there'.
Good Luck.
