thanks a lot

Nice track mate. You have put some hard work in there. No rain eh

I guess it is the middle of winter down in our part of the world, but is has been exceptionaly wet this year.
By November we will be watering the track between heats to keep the dust down again - can't wait. Blue groove tracks and no muddy cars

the page states:
21R/PRO/Rear Exhaust CNC Golden Head Turbo Racing Engine 7PT+2

Contents : 3.45cc
Maximum Power : 2.7hp
R.P.M : 40.000 rpm   <<<<(i know these are BS) 

Pic      
These seem to be the pic for the 808 guys overhere as thats my combo also they are more than worth the money and are more than on par with many of the top end brands

Gotta tell ya Grizz I'm gettin pretty pissed with the weather all these new toys and no fine day to play, haven't even started running in my gen1 - 5.5 5port yet.

Can you hear those explosions from where you are at the moment love to know whats goin on there.

the 2072 will drop straight in if you've been running the 2047 -0801header combo.

fingers crossed the weather holds off for sunday

i have a go 3r engine and i love it, but i did have one question, i have about 1.5 gallons through the engine and i have noticed that it likes to run in the 230-240 degree range is this ok? i have tried bringing the temp down but i just dont get very good performance. at 240 i am getting good smoke and its not lean bogging at all on the straights. can i leave the tune were it is as long as i am getting good smoke? i dont want to burn up my engine. thanks for your time

Never tune to a temp, every temp gun and engine are different just tune for performance and smoke. We've had this discussion several time and 1 day we put it to the test and temped an engine with 4 different temp guns and there was over a 20 deg c difference which is huge to say the least. as long as your getting good performance and still making a reasonable amount of smoke your fine

They are Gen 5 , gen 5.5 are only avail to registered distributors. Also be ware of someone falsely advertising something as " Factory Modified " its not , as Gary stated earlier. Also you have no warranty , the factory will not warrant engines sold through non registered dealers.

The 7 needs to spool up a bit before the clutch hits - then look out Having said that, it's not a violent hook up with mega wheelspin, it just gets down and hauls butt.

Temp gun !!!! Quick, hide it before Massive comes after it with his hammer
Here temp gun ... where are you ? i have a nice little present for you

so all your engines are gen. 5.5 correct. and if I buy from you even though I am in the states will I still have factory warranty?

MM only sells his Moddeds motor internationally due to region agreements with the factory but due to exchange rates his modded motors work out almost as cheap as a stocker
and he warrants his products 100%

Hey Matt

Yes as Retro Stated . We only have the latest Go Engines so yes Gen 5.5 and yes only modified engines for international sale. We personally warrant any engine we modify. Once they are modified we run them for 2 tanks before we send them . That way we KNOW the engine is working perfectly.

Hope that helps

MM
