Hey man, first off, I just want to say thanks for your help. I have 30 plus rc cars and just picked up my first nitro lst with a 454 in it. Thanks to you, that new carb on runs flawless. 2 question what did you use for the header seals? Second, when you did you 454 swap, what did you use for a pull cord? My cord is starting to fray. Thanks again for your help.

Exhaust seals I used dynamite for block to header and protek for header to pipe. Proteks fit loosely on block but fit good for pipe seal. I had old Lrp pull start laying around, rebuilt with different cord it but is pretty much same thing. I watched the video and saw forgot to mention that the Mach .26 pull start didnt fit Mach .26ss backplates (backplate used on 454). Sh engine pull cord might be same as lrp as they are under same company, but I did break the lrp pull starter and abused it again when I rebuilt it and it hasn’t shown any wear.

I also just posted video but did miss a lot of points so keep reaching out if you have more questions!

great job on the resto/video/tunes. Check tank pressure at the primer and cap. Could cause it to run lean at higher rpm. I see its rich on the low and then leans...

[@haywirerc]

Drove the truck around today and was running ok but there’s definitely a leak in the tank as it’s very lean and fuel is not getting to carb quick enough like you said. Primer had never worked for the entire time I’ve had it and I looked at cap o ring and it needs to be replaced.

To fix cracked spots super glue or epoxy stops it from getting bigger

Can anyone help me with the needle setting

[@haywirerc]

High speed and low speed should be flush but right now I have my high speed one turn down from flush and low speed is two turns out for me. Good luck and your tune should be around there.

[@haywirerc]

One turn leaned on high

[@chopers49]

Thank you very much

Is this LST a vintage one ?

[@haywirerc]

First version LST. I consider it vintage but they were made in 2004.

[@user-cw7oi1ib2q]

I got one , but i lost the wheel hub adapter , could you tell me which model its fit to replace , because i can't find the original one

[@haywirerc]

@@user-cw7oi1ib2q not totally sure as unfortunately the 14mm hub has a strange offset
