Lol, we were all little racer at one time including my self! Frankly that's the beauty of this sport. It can starts off as a hobby and then turn into a career or as in my case a business! Trust we though when I say that I'm still the little guy surounded by 300 pound gorillas but I'll never forget that the whole reason I got started with this business in the first place was because I was so unhappy with the support and service that I was getting from companies at the time! I'm not going to make the same mistake my self lol!!!

Hey Ron {aka Mr Werks} I have been a loyal customer of your power clutch, Have you done any testing with the clutch and B5 together? My plans are to purchase a couple of your B5's this winter for next season and be the first one up here in Alaska to run them. Just to add a note about the clutch. I run the carbon shoe's all season from April to October and only had to change shoe's out 3 times. With the stock shoe's I was going thru 6 or 7 sets a year.
Thanks Jim

I think I'm goin to get the B5 but a-main has them on back order. When I went on there today I noticed that they have the B3 on sale for 159.99. The Werks web site doesn't have the B5 on there so I can't compare them.
Can someone help me with some good and bad on this motor or should I just wait till the B5 is back in stock.

The B3 is a 3 port engine. It has a lot of torque and will pull you out of the turns really hard but kind of lack top end. The B5 is a 5 port, it has almost as much bottom end grunt as a 3 port and almost as much top end as a 7 port. I think the B5 has better fuel mileage than either the 3 or the 7. It has balls down low and doesn't appear to struggle at all in the top speed department.
The B5 is a killer deal. $160 for a B3 is a sweet deal as well and I may pick one up in the future but for an all-around race motor I chose the B5.

You might want to back order one, we have a shipment en-route from ugLy now and will be sendig them some around the end of next week. They allways seem to sell out quickly though so getting in the que is definitely a good idea.
