Smarty SW0 + timing

[Drewhenry]

My Smarty has arrived before my gages have. Is there any danger in running SW0-half power with timing on 4 -economy? Gages should be here next week. I am interested in seeing how much mileage I can safely crank out of her in the interim.

Thanks

Andy

why would you run it on half power?

 

[Drewhenry]

Cuz I don't have gages yet and don't want to melt anything.

Runningon half power will probably not get you any extra mpg's. I would say keep it on level 3 tops. And, keep your foot out of it to be safe.

EGT's on level 3 should be lower than stock

 

[Drewhenry]

got gages

Yes level 3 does run cooler than stock. I confirmed that today. What kind of clutch would ya'll recommend? With torque management set to 4 it is really easy to spin the clutch. I don't want a clutch that is snappy or jerky or so sensitive I can't back up to a trailer without using 4lo. I like what I've read about @ Southbend and also Valair, but I know next to nothing about clutches.
