whats the clearance on the chassi and motor when bolted down ?
is the chassi milled out in the area the motor bolts down in , i would certainly look at differant mounts to try it will get expensive replacing motors all the time..

Yes correct , more nitro means hotter combustion temps however more nitro lets you run a tad richer which will cancel that out however ! if you run high nitro with incorrect shimming you will blow plugs and run hotter head temp with a cooler exhaust temp however if you run lower nitro with more shims you will get less torque but higher top end speed with hotter exhaust temps ! and a cooler head temp !

yeah its a bit differnt to my gen5 5 port but it will do for a spear.
the 1 your showing is a gen4 engine does it have that exact head or does it have this 1

the pic above is a gen3 or earlier, visiby the only difference is the cooling head.
