Nh80 variator help

Post by Nq50nicko »

I'm looking into pos. A nh125 or another models outer variator pully.as mine and as heard others the belt stops 1/4 inch from the top of the inner variator pulley. Will a nh125 fit or anybody no the sizes? My stock on is 3.5 inches. Looking to get a few more mph out of her. I got boyeson reeds.ported intake manifold.90 main jet.cone air filter. Done 13 gram weights.different belts. But getting stuck at 40 on gps for strait runs.can hit 42 to 43 on downhills.but need steady 45 for my streets around here. Any and all help will be highly greatfull. Weight help take off a bunch but have no impact on my top speed.also tried half 13g and half 16g. No top end diff.Thanks.

I also noticed that at top speed with variator open. There's about a 1/8 or so gap between pulleys. If I shave down the slide bushing end so they will touch. May that help.to pull belt up a bit.
