I’ve never used an aluminum servo horn with a plastic adaptor. I would get an all aluminum when you can and just make sure the servo saver is set correct. Not saying that the plastic would fail but I wouldn't chance it. Justin has had some really hard crashes and never had any servo problems yet, knock on wood.
What temp gauge, engine, head? And who modded the engine? Is 140 Fahrenheit or Celsius? Normally when the engine starts to run on it’s because the engine is getting a little to hot or the idle needs to be set a little lower. We start by richening up the HNS & LNS a couple hours.

Mcran I am sorry I didnt notice I wrote 140 I meant 240. The mill is a SH 6 port prospec .28 I had a stage 1 from AB mods done on it. Like I said never noticed it before. I was reading earlier and noticed that alot of pro's use slower transit time servos and or analog servos for the throttle. I am using a Kopropo PDS-2343 which is digital 111 oz torque and .8 transit. Could that be a bad set up? I will try to get outside tomorrow and start it up, how will I know richening both needles alittle and lowering the idle worked without hitting jumps? And you said richen 2 hours each both high and low? And I use the Duratrax blue temp guage.

engine mounts
I read that the stock engine mounts can crack the engine case of some big block motors such as the novarossi. Has anybody had this problem. As I'm running a novarossi N528X do I need to get some new mounts or has Cen fixed this problem. Thanks for your input.

drop of super glue will do the trick as well.

I’ve noticed on some modded engines that they like to run on more than the stock version. It’s hard to say without tuning the engine myself because there are so many variables. I would start with richening the bottom up and see how it does once it’s up to temp. I’ve also seen some engine mods that were not so good and caused these type problems. Not saying it’s the engine mod because I don’t know anything about AB Mods. 90% of all the engine issues I’ve had ended up being a bad front bearing sucking air. The bearing will look fine but that doesn’t mean it’s not sucking air. Go to your local track and find someone that really knows engine tuning and see if they will help you out. I had a stock V-Spec doing the same thing and once I changed the front bearing the engine run great.
For the stock engine mounts you can use a grinder and shave about 2mm off the inside of both mounts or get Gene’s Blue engine mounts. Just make sure on the stock mounts that when you tighten them up everything is squared up with the engine and chassis and not in a bind.
