yes I believe its stock, not in bad shape at all though..what were you thinking, possibly change it to save some weight? The ice probably wont have much snow on it if any..i'm running f7's and some SRX's...looking to put some competition out there for TY
 
Watch the V-3's & your RPM's, Olav Aaen did a reed test this spring for Amsnow & used his viper for the test on V-3's, Stock, Boysen & RAD Valves. The V-3 lost huge power after 8500 rpm. The Boysen peddles make nice gains & he said the RAD valve did not show enough gain over the peddles for the cost. Take this as second hand info but I know with the V-3's in my BB Viper it had no pull over 8600 rpms.

192 chisels should get you hooked up great as long as the snow aint too deep. Did you put on the engine tourqe stop?

no I haven't put the engine torque stop in..and the slp's require to run 8800-8900 rpms for peak hp

Maybe the SLP's flow diff than the Aaen's & will work with the V-3s @ higher rpm's. I have a set of V-3's & a set of Boysen peddles to try in Ski's viper when he gets it together & we get snow again, So stay tuned.

Run the T-Stop or your just giving up your power. Clutch for the torque to get the sled moving & let the hp pull on the big end. Test test test is where it's @.
