He said it ran good...not as much top end as the modded V-Spec........ However its not really fair to compare yet, the GX7 had very little fuel thru it and was extremely tight, as well was running full shims and a weighted flywheel.... He said it ran good considering, but just wasn't showing the crazy power he is used to.... But as I say its too early to tell....... The Go 7 5.5 we are running has 2.5 gallons on it, shims removed and it absolutely screams.

I am pretty sure all Go engine Usa motors have the short low speed needle. Maximo is in Canada and gets his motors from Fx I believe. I am not sure which motor motox 450 has but in his sig it has a MM motor listed which would mean it has the long needle.
I might give the long needle a try again next spring, most Usa customers had better luck with the shorter needle.

You will find a smoother power band and a little better economy with the longer needle too.
Give one a try Rex (check out the tuning tips on MMods or my web site), you will like it
All the MG66's come with the long needle too.

Yeah, the tuning with the long needle is different, but once you get the hang of it, it is actually easier to tune and run than the shorter needle (as invariably you only have to tune the bottom end once you have it set up properly).

+1, Once you get your head around the different way of tuning, it's almost too easy. I remember the first time I tuned it with Mark's guide, I thought I must have missed something, as it was way too easy.....

which carb seal do you need? I'll have the GX exploded diagrams up this weekend (or at least provide links to them tonight). They will include part numbers. I'll add a GX5 cooling head to my incoming order... I still havent received confirmation that it has shipped, so I'm adding a few last minute things. I should be well stocked with this shipment.. at least for a couple of weeks. I'll plan on doing a refresh order on Jan 1st, depending on when this one reaches me.
Also, the site isnt up yet. I just wanted to show you guys what we are working on. I need to add some more content and some banners on the side, but the framework is done. most of the artwork is as well! Forums are installed too- just need to modify some of the categories, permissions, etc. We're close!

The part numbers on the new GX5-R that are located in the same spot as the ones I need are:
2 @ OR-0004
2 @ OR-0014
2 @ 21-GX5R
My cylinder heads are the .21 5 port turbo heads but black in color. I did not know if these parts where the same or not. It would be nice to get a complete set of spart parts once I start to stock these engines or sell them.
By the way Trey,
Have you gotten up with Matt Anderson at Anderson R/C
I keep asking him and he just says that he sent information over to you. I realy need him to get on board in some kind of way. He does not even have a Go Engine at all.
