The e-class has been growing around here and they look like fun also. But if I EVER go somewhere and they are running the buggies all together sorry E-buggy LOL. It will have GO stickers on it anyway.

Hi guys, just hoping I could get some advice on my new engine pipe combo that will be going into my RC8 soon. Now I know asking what gear people think is the best can be biased but I'm now stuck in a bit of a jam as of which way to lean. Like I said Ivé got an RC8FT that I am currently running a V spec with 2060 pipe. I'm looking for a new mill for the rest of this season and next year as the V spec is starting to feel a bit tired. I was thinking about getting a WS73 but for the price and the amount of racing I do and not to forget that I'll never realy be a threat to the fast guys, I just one a bang for your buck engine that will still deliver the goods as my skills improve. So I've been looking at the Go engines but now can't decide on what one to get. I will be racing on a high bite blue groove surface that is fairly flowing, so would the 3, 5 or 7 port suit me better.

hey 22racer

can you explain this better install a shim under the sleeve...!!!

you mean the piston sleeve this would raise the ports right but wouldnt that close of the exaust port

From what I've learned about the Go's, it seems like the 3,5, or 7 could work in almost any situation. I started with a 5 and ran it hot. It had more top end than any of the guys I raced down the straight, but when I got into the technical sections it performed like the kind of engine that would be described as "bottom end only". Basically, I ran a 5 port on the hot side (280 degrees) and really did get the best of both worlds. Just my .02

I have a 7 port arriving tomorrow, I'll let you know how they compare if you're interested.

Russell did order a few Mg66's for some guy's that wanted to test them. He will order a bunch next time probably, this order was all Gx series motors.

You thought the 5 Port had good top end - wait until you unleash the 7 Port :nod: It's like Dolly Parton - top heavy :lol:, but it has plenty of bottom too (sorry Dolly). Ideal buggy motor with 1.1 springs. You will love it.
280 is pretty warm. You will get plenty out of the GO's without wringing them that much :)

So from what I gather the more ports the more ""ïnsane"" it gets?

Yes Rex he said you wanted to test them ... :nod:

Grizz is right, I am shimming the sleeve up to change timing of the motor. (thin shim under the sleeve) It takes away a little bottom end and gives it more top end. I have been doing this on alot of the 5 ports I sell but you can do it to most motors. I have a .25 6 port that runs really well with a timing change and the turbo button. I don't recommend someone that isn't good with engines to do it himself, the head shimming needs to be changed also. A modder once told me you can dremel all you want and it won't make as much of a difference as a timing change. I am finding this to be true.
