Does anyone know what a ts1(tuned) head temp should run at approx as iam thinking along the lines of the Sip speedo with the temp gauge which apparently tops out at 250c 482 f

If iot doesn't sit within those limits then you will be in serious trouble :shock: My Avanti sits at about 160 if that helps.

The SIP Speedo when set to KPH reads degrees C when set to MPH reads degrees F.
Also if you set wheel rpm to 1320 this will give you a very accurate speedo!

BR7ES Plug 210'C or 410'F
BR8ES Plug 240'C or 464'F
BR9ES Plug 270'C or 518'F

Hope the above data will help.
As Darrel has said the head & cowling need to be modified, on my Facebook profile in my photo albums you will find just how much is required to fit & mod cowling.

Cheers Ian thanks for that much appreciated that does help.

Just one more thing is it right that the speedo only reads up to 250 c I think I spotted it in Allstyles advert for them ?
