[QUOTE=Dasmopar;12813974]Word has pretty much rolled down from the top that 3 port motors will no longer be produced unless there is a order for like 20 of them at a time. No one would have thought they would pull the plug on this motor when everyone agreed to the three port engines. So even if rules had been put in place it wouldn't have changed novarossis mind on production schedules. They just aren't selling enough of them to bother with them. Now the 5 port motors look to be the option.

I'm not sure why I'm the one posting this info. Jeff and Lon sr are on the front lines of this, not me.

Lon II out!


That's my boy! Any how this was never planned as a Novarossie class but their motor fit like a glove, then it was gone. Garen isn't saying if the Motonica 3-port is out there yet. Guess there are buggie motors out there but I know nothing about them (can't really suggest them.)

Just got some input from Jeff Z. with input from Jeff W. Anyone with a thought on this, let me know. The simple 3-port class doesn't appear to go as the class needs motors that anyone can get. A 3-port and a restricted 5-port class? Yes my offer to tech still stands. The 5-ports are out there and don't appear to be going away soon. What do you think?
