I had no problems with those. But I guess that stuff comes in bad and in worse batches. :D
The problem with 3Racing parts is that for those non moving aluminum parts, you need to assemble them with care. They have very little margin of error for assembly.

:cry:

Is that only the main bearing or both front and main bearings ceramic? Is the crankshaft coated?

Hey, did you polished the balls and the bearing race as well?:rolleyes: :lol: I know if it was crashed_1, he would.:sweat: :lol:

damn dude thats nice I wouldn't have the guts to open up an engine that is this expensive:eek: props man
That's a mistake a lot of people make. You actually need to check and make sure that NOTHING foreign is in the engine and everything looks normal. You never know. Better be safe than sorry. Else, another JP down the drain.

I also heard that JP engines dont last very long maybe 2 gallons of fuel through them then they need to be rebuilt due to the fact that they are full bred racing engines:sneaky:
Where did you hear this?:confused:

I will never last long for a non race bred engine is you do not run it correctly. That's for sure.
