Now to the good bits...

The crank. Hardcoated, looks very aggressive and balanced.

Nothing too special about piston/rod but looks very solid and might handle some punishment

Steel bearings, but very nice carb. Comes with optional venturi...
Better put some silicone sealant at the carb neck, for sure some leakage there coz the o ring is too lose.

Thanks Novarossi for posting pictures.
Engine looks very nice, quite simple, yet very nicely made.

Let us know of your first test impressions.

Default Con rod selection

Anyone knows the difference of
23755000 (Max VZ-B) and 23755020 (Speed VZ)?
Both engines are in same Bore and Stroke, can be interchanged?

beebone, I am curious to know why you shimmed the head 0.1mm more? Is this for break in only?

My normal pratice for the high speed track. it pretty safe to reduce denotation in high rpm.

I do the same beebone, i have noticed some loss of power when this is done, but for longevity it is good

Yes, the low end power has lost, so compensate by the gear ratio and longer manifold.
