[QUOTE="MikeinFresno, post: 208531, member: 40"] on the other hand, it may be that it was lean on total fuel and got hot due to being lean. So, I would go one larger on the main. Not because it is bored out, just because it broke on you the way it was. Also, you never said what ratio the mix was. If you change to 20-1 that would probly be a big change and would lean out the fuel mix slightly which would then lead to a bigger problem if the main was already a little lean and led to the failure. I say main cuz you were WFO for an extended time on the lake bed. 20-1 is fine, but you need to jet to it or whatever mix you choose. If you are using 50-1 and go to 20-1 it is not like you change the total mix by a lot, it probly only ends up being a 3% difference in the gasoline in the mix. Usually its not the amount of oil that is the cause of a failure(unless its a poor oil or not enough in the mix like 100-1) it is usually not enuf total fuel thru the jets that causes the over heat and leads to the failure.
