After looking at my savage 25 heat sink, I thought its took the brunt
of a fair few rolls and falls. I cant see much colour on the top
through the bare metal!. I brought a SAVX roll loop set off ebay for a
rather cheap price of £1! now thats fitted I want a nice shiny big
phat heatsink. Any reccomendations or am I stuck with the standard one?

Also Dan if you come across any cheap shells for a Sav let us know, I'm
desperate for one but not really into paying £50 plus for one!

TIA!

Oh yeah, if the Nova Head has make an offer..offer them $30 and save
yourself a bit!
Or email the seller and see what their best price is.
They make some real nice Differential Gear Cups for the Savage as well.
Actually just bought a Nova Head for my Ravager 4.6 last night, it's on the
way!

I'll second the Nova heads. Tough as nails, look great and they WORK. On
the Mach .26 I just broke in, with stock head she was running 250-260-ish,
with the Nova head she wouldn't break 200*, with the same tune as I had
before. I actually had to lean the HSN 1/4 turn to get the temps up and get
her performing right. She's now running 230-250-ish with a leaner and
meaner tune, which means more power and better fuel economy.

Well worth the $30$40.
