No it will not work with a t3 chain case. BUT there is a combo that does work...

Did we take a picture of that set up? Don't think so.
I would think having proper gearing will be more beneficial than running no tensioner? Maybe not never tried it?
On my 163 T3, I dropped 2 teeth off the top gear and it was like a whole new sled! Clutching bone stock...
I did climb the Fingers and many other "turbo" chutes around Revy with that setup, I'd say it works ok.

This whole thread is basically about making your stock setup more efficient. Any one try to upsize your drivers to 8 tooth. Have a set in the shop I'm thinking about giving a go. First sled I have had in a long time that doesn't have fuel controllers and gauges hanging off of it. Kind of nice just holding it to the bar.

usually not you got enough time to pull a sandwich out have two bites then back at it. I've just learned now to keep a muff pot strapped to the can and ride it all day then stop when they stop to have a slightly warm meal lol

I have a think cooker for sale that would fit ur sled(I have a new 850 comming) or I would keep it.
I went to 8 tooth drivers on my 163 T3 two seasons ago unintentionally and it seems to be working good. I bent my stock driveshaft and drivers so called my dealer for a replacement and they shipped me one from an older XM with the 8 tooth drivers on it. Went to press them off and put the 7's on the shaft and thought lets measure them just to see and pitch was identical. Both measured about 2.9", could be that the tighter radius on the 7 tooth makes it closer to a 3" pitch but nothing the calipers could measure. So I thought I'll try the 8's anyway since there seems to be room and would benefit attack angle. Sled has been running great for the last 1000+ miles like this. No added vibration or anything and seems to run cooler than other T3's with just the stock scratchers used on the ice in the 14/15 season. I do need to drop gearing more though, as I switched the 21 top for a 19 and took a link out while putting the 8 tooths in but its still too high of gearing. Stock ratio was 2.43 (51/21) and the new ratio compensated by 7/8 for the change in driver size is 2.35 (51/19)x(7/8). Burnt two belts so far and too much clutch temp. Still running factory clutching though too.

When you dropped 2 teeth did you have to drop down to 1 on the clickers?

Possible to see some pics on how you fixed the intake trumpet?

I don't have any, but this is what you want just longer. Drill it for the intake sensor and done.

Awesome thanks. What did you do to the airbox dowstream to be able to clamp the new boot to it? Just trim off the tits for the old style twist lock?

Yes and a hose clamp, not meaning to hijack, but I ride with oler1234 and mine is the same.
