axe rossi cobra
novarossi 367
os v-spec
rb concepts s7 l2g
sirio kanai evo iv sti
orion crf .21
trinity ex-tech II full mod
What do you plan on running this selection in?

The Plus 4 as mentioned abouve is a very sweet engine, the 367 is a great motor as well, there is a little less lifespan out of a standard OS due to the crank being softer than the Nova's or speed versions, it seems your willing to spend some cash on very good engines, so if durability is a strong factor the JX .21 or Speed is a good choice, both are OS based, and tunning is a breeze, both have the ceramic crank, and the rods last.

The RB is smooth and is great in buggy, awesome topend and reliable, with decent runtimes. The OS based and Nova's i know more about, the Axe and Orion not to much info, and the Trinity, i don't run other company's modded engines. Modded engines being a pain to tune, simply a matter of opinion You can't go wrong with the Nova's and RB's the OS based go with the ceramic coated version's
