Re: My 35% Dalton 260
I haven't weighed it yet but I'll let you know when I do. I built it pretty much as per the
instructions with no extra effort to make it light. The cans seem to work great, very quiet and the engine runs smooth with great transition. I added a tunnel for the cans but I probably could have left it out and saved a little weight. Looking foward to building a 42% next. Just as soon as my bailout check gets here... |
