GS Racing exhaust header seals

GS meets all your exhaust-sealing needs with silicone seals that fit all Nova-based (and compatible) .12 rear round-exhaust engines. The seals are available in several colors, and the "LOR" or Light Orange seals offer better heat resistance. Otherwise, the color of the seal does not make a difference to performance.

Hardcore Racing Components Carb Adapter

An easy way to drop an O.S. carb into any Novarossi engine is with this adapter from Hardcore. The machined-aluminum adapter fits into the neck of the block and allows you to install the user-friendly O.S. carb in any Novarossi-based engine. The connection is press-fit, so be sure to seal it up well to protect against air leaks.

Trinity Matt Francis timing jig & break-in stand

The latest addition to Trinity's Matt Francis line makes it easy to dial in your modmotor's timing, and an included fan provides both load and cooling for break-in. The foam base holds the jig steady and has room to hold two additional motors for endbell work-or simply to prevent them from rolling off your bench!
