Anyone have some experience for this engine. Lets post it here.
I am looking at using this in my 10th scale touring. Whats the feedback.
Thanks in advance for your contribution.

Ive heard that the TM G4S RTR will be released with the SH12. Personally I havent had any experience but would like to try one.

Can it be true that no one has ever used an SH?

I know of two guys that run the G4S RTR and they are pretty fast for an RTR. They've over heated them several times and they still run. Not Super fast but seems to be reliable.

I heard it's based on a novarossi design but bears no part actually built by novarossi. What's the price on it? I'm willing to bet a JLR Picco Red Dot engine would be better for around the same, if not less money.

Did you end up buying this engine and how does it run?

hmmmm.... i heard STS engine is also based on novarossi design. So are both engine the same? wahaha... what i know is both are Taiwan made engine!

Depends on which SH 12 engine you're looking at. Their best one for on road is the RXT version which is modified with a turbo head. Most of the other .12's they have are standard head buttons. I used to run one in a TC3 back in the day and would have no problems keeping up with JP mod engines or Sirio's.

Just make sure to use a fuel that has around 10% oil in it. The SH engines will run hot if the oil content is above 14%.

Dont let the Taiwan roots fool you... there is a new .12 coming out from STS thats sure to turn heads. Its due for 08, and its about time. The current line up is a little dated:

Here is the new .12 3 port onroad engine:

i ran one in a crt .5 and it was really good .bottom end was controllable,and top end was awesome after about 5 minutes with the dremel.unfortunately i killed the rear bearing,which i blame on the fuel(which ironically was the last tankful i had of that particular fuel before i was gonna change back to odonnel). 80 bucks for a new rxt is definitley worth it imo.

any time frame on that sts being released?
