Default OS TZ Motor Page

So, who's doing what and who's making what for the TZ motors. Is there anybody making better con rods for these motors. I need to change out my .12 rod as it has a stretched feel to it, having endured the really heavy wedge these engines have. We had two .21 engines break their rods right above the crank pin this w/end at Time Zone Raceway in Washington. These were motors owned by very experienced racers and I don't want to suffer their frustrations.

So far, I've run a gallon of fuel with nothing but praise for its speediness, having had it finnessed by our local motor man Mike Ellis. He mentioned some one talked on a thread about this rod problem, so here I am, checking out the fixes.

What do you know ??
