Try cutting some more holes in the body. Sometimes, though, you just can't avoid having to richen up the carb to keep it cool.

I am shure it is not tuned OK, or you might have an air leak somewhere. The T-15 I have runs very cool with the standard heatsink and no extra holes in the body. So first check for air leaks, then retune it (if you have it, use a tempgauge).

yea ur biggest problem is air leaks, and not enough air getting to it... the larger heat sink wont help unless u have more air coming to it so maybe it is air leaks/ tuning problems....check that before wasting money on unneeded parts
