EGT Temps on a CRP viper?

How far are the probes mounted away from the exhaust flange, and are you running the stock head or CPR head mod.

im seeing 1268 after a long run on a bender tripp, 6'-7' from skirt w/ bender headmod 120 psi on all three cyl....but like the post above said , there alot of factors ...if you want to do it right , dont even turn the egt on and go test , then when you know your plugs and piston wash look good in you low to mid and top end then turn the egt on and what ever you see is your safe range , i have heard of guys that run there sleds at 1325 and on long runs see 1375 and no burndowns ....check your plugs and pistons to see if your ok first ....
 
Also do you guys have one cylinder that runs hotter. At idle my pto is hottest then center then mag, is this normal?
 
My 700 sx ruins right at 420 pto 320 center and 420 mag. They all run about the same the rest of the time. i am at 6 inches from piuston skirt. Maxdlx

What is your jetting on the Vip with Benders? Elevation? I am running a 136" Vip with Benders at Sea Level with 165 Mains and 52.5 PF and seeing 1150 on long lake blasts with probes 6.5" from PISTON front. I am obviously fat, but am reluctant to run em lean. I too think the best thing to do is check the pistons and then turn on the EGT.

Any clutching tips for me? I am running heelclickers with huge weight on tip and very little in heel with 51/43 and green sec spring. Seems to run pretty well. Have not run anything to speak of 99 TCAT was real close...whomever got the hole shot.

THanks
 
snowman , i am also running the 52.5 and 165 right now , im going to run 50's and 162.5 this weekend....if there is any snow that is .....but i was seeing 1268 with the 52.5 and 165's but my gas milage sucks ...maybe 80 miles to a tank ,im going to the 50 p-jet cause im fouling plugs like crazy when i first start the thing in the morning and the snow is black where my exshaust spills out ....once it warms up no problems all day and it runs real strong , but gas milage and the fact i dont run the lakes, when i do race its for maybe 1000 - 1500 ft.most the time its trails and off trail for me not long lake runs , so i will see what happens with the 50's and the 162.5 ...on the clutching are you running the original heel clickers or the hammer time???
