n you are not going to replace the right thing to heal your old engine. i,e. bearings ? crankshaft ?

you should only replace the conrod instead

I tried the 3 damper setup when EGR was new..... it was ok... turn in was too sharp for EGR but PYC 'maybe' OK!!! I used to run Tamiya Medium friction damping grease on the RC12 this 'fixed' the rear end more than the 3 dampers. I won't be running RC12... yet... so we can all have a laugh if it doesn't work out!!!!

but i dont think the shaft and the bearings wears out as fast as the sleeve and piston and conrod!! maybe after the first or second replacement those things would start to wear out!

the pin on the shaft does wear but not as much as the conrod

Someone is SERIOUSLY overcharging you for the M Speed head... it should be around the $400 mark!!!!

At TRT I'm sure a 13T would overtake a GP (if you don't die from the exhaust fumes first!!!) The GP would never be able to get the power out quick enough before you got to another turn!!!!!!
