270 race tune findings

[Doowithblue]

For those running hh's in their hurricane tunes. Once the sled gets some good miles on it you are going to need a hell of a lot of weight in the primary. I ordered the optional tungsten washers for mine. I honestly believe lon should be sending out a higher base weight for tuned winders. No matter what you do to a 58g base weight it's not going to be enough. And this is with a light spring. It's incredible how much faster this sled is getting with some miles on it.

I'm thinking you'll need Daltons or STM weights with that tune when is all said and done.

Nailed it Matty.....

Why Daltons and not just a heavier base weight HH?

I run viper 270 and i use hhy68. You got 270 the hhy58 is a bit light

Therefore will the Lonn's Big Venom not have enough weight for a 270 tune, is anyone using the Big Venom weights for a 270 tune.

Do you think the HH base weight 58gr with 1/2» brase fastners (9.2gr) or 7/16» brase fastners (7.2gr) together with heavy metal washer will be too light for the 270/280 race tune?

With 270 race and Dalton adjustables how much weight do you think we need ?

 

[Doowithblue]

Tungsten washers and you'll be fine. Weight is weight. Don't fall for the members saying you gotta go with another brand. Not true at all.

Depending on which springs and helix you use, 76-79 grams for the 270R and Daltons.

I went to 63g base weight and it works perfect for max spool 17 TD tune

Yes. Incorporate tungsten washers in the mix and you'll be fine.

I was running the 280r tune, and now called 290r tune and the 58 base with tungsten washers and the big boy brass bolts at 7 grams each and it still wasn't enough. I bought the 63 gram base weights and good to go now. I believe I'm around 80 grams in the HH.
