Axe Rossi
Hmm. I have owned a few Axe Rossi Early 400 plus dollar engines from a long time a go. Break in takes forever.
Now, that being said. I still have both my Rossi LSK, which I just put back into service. Needed a new Front Bearing. I lost count as to how many gallons on that thing.
The other engine is a Rossi Black Magic. Again, that's about a $500 dollar engine. Alien looking head,but, what an engine.
So, I kinda think you get what you pay for.
I will say, the only engine I would consider a low budget engine is a Werks engine.
I'm not calling it a low budget engine, but, I'ts the cheapest engine I own. Werks B7 or a .28.
Both combined don't have as many gallons through them as my LSK and my
LSK has more compression than both. (Actually, thats wrong, I just rebuilt
(new Piston/Sleeve/Con Rod/Bearings) my Werks .28 and it hasn't been fired yet)
