Was using 16/96 on an Orion/Peak 5.5 (16/87 on a big outdoor track) - no problems

I run a 17t with the stock spur on the standard spur for the non-worlds, 96T I think....

I run a GTB w/5.5r

I am running a GTB and a 4.5L with a 19/87 on dirt off-road track is tight and 120' x 65'. Speedo after 5 min. = 120 and motor is 130.
Been running it for 3 months. Tried a 17 and temp went up to 160 on both maybe a little more on the motor.

Standard Kit( non-big pulley ) 96/19
Worlds Kit ( or Big Pulley ) 91/16

This is set up for a track that is 100 x 50 ft roughly with the 5.5L motor.. Just try to keep the overall final in the low to upper 11ish range and go up or down one tooth depending on the track size
