if you went to the GO website http://www.go-engine.com/ you could see that the crankcase is the same externally and the carb is a ringer also. The info I've seen implies that this engine is manufactured by GO for Preci Rotate to Preci Rotate's specs. Please don't go thinking a GO or GO based engine can't be good. The new GX series GO engines are very powerful and durable. I have more acceleration and top speed than any "econo" engine at our (or other) track. I "give up" nothing in acceleration and top speed to any of the "premium" engines.
This post wasn't made to start a flame contest, It's my experience that GO's (even re-badged ones) are often considered not equivalent to the "premium" engines. In my opinion/ experience, they are as good, or so near to as good, that the single biggest difference is....................PRICE. If you look at the GO thread in this very forum, you'll see owners often describe their GO as a "beast" or a "monster". You'll also see owners of the "MG66" (a GX5R GO built by GO to Massive Mods specs using the Massive Mods cooling head also) saying that the MG66 is the finest engine they've ever owned...........bar none.

Either way
It is a heck of a deal with the pipe and all the little stuff included.
GO get one....A Main is a good place to GO shopping.....
It does look similar to an Alpha....Not a bad engine either, I've seen them GO....
The Alpha designer worked for GO. Go figure....
It may GO pretty fast....

The alphas run a 0801 pipe like the precirotates do. The GOs have a 2041 pipe

Yes, GO has a FEMCA 0801, and an EFRA 2072
These are the only GO pipes in the U.S. at this time.

I know some manufacturers just have a list of several specced parts you can choose from to create the engine.

Buy one of those! Then use te code mm in check out and it comes out to 219. Thats a good deal. NO break in and they are fast.

try a gx7r in a buggy. put in the lowest carb insert. now find a engine that will out rev the gx7r. i got 200 bucks saying you wont. no nova comes close.
speed and b6 are closest but the gx7r is one of the fastest highest revving mother fu^$$%^$ in the market at this time.
i own alot of engines. on long tracks the 7r is the best. for the rest. my speed.
but hands down the 7r will outrev anything

i agree that it looks like a go but here in australia go tech are winning races so for the price give it a go at the worst you get to keep a pipe and the other stuff if the engine goes so not a complete loss
