It's 4 bolt and anything that fits a Sirio or Novarossi should fit.

Sorry for getting up this 2-year old thread, but I find it a bit weird to ask questions about the b3 in the b5 or b6 thread.

My dad runs his buggy with a cheap RTR engine at the moment. It's about to wear out, and he's looking into other engines.
He doesn't want to spend too much, so that's why Alphas and Werks got the first choice.

Would the Werks B3 be any good on a buggy? He already has a Jammin JP2. I seen some good words on that pipe in this topic, so that would be great.
We run on a relative small, low traction track with a 30 meter straight.

I appreciate any kind of info / advice or experiences.

Thanks
Erik

Yes the b3 is a good engine I've run it in buggy and truggy with a 2013 pipe. It's a great short track engine and I've used it at larger tracks with only a small loss in power on the top end. I bought a few when A Main marked them down to $139. With the $30 off a $200 purchase Tower Hobbies is offering I would buy a B5 and a P3 glow plug. The B5 just performs better and gets better fuel mileage

Yeah, for the price you might as well get a B5 (maybe even B6). They are GREAT engines. I don't see the B3 on A main anymore.

Well my dad got an offer to take it for 20 bucks less than usual. Normal price for a B3 is €150, he got it offered for 130. The B5 is 200 here, that's gonna be too much.

the b3 is my favorite of all the Werks engines. runs much better on 30% nitro. I'm sad to hear it is discontinued ( if thats true ). Great little motor , very easy to tune, maybe the most trouble free engine I have ever had. Buy it, you will be pleased.
