Some more information would be nice. They'll most likely release it to the mags first for a full shakedown then it'll be available for public consumption. They'd be better off getting them out before the spring racing season starts.

Why would you think that? I pitted with one of their drivers at a race about a month ago and his engine ran great all weekend. What he said is that they're still tweaking on it, and they were still getting new parts in to try. They want the engine to be the best it can be before they put it out for sale, more power to them for that.

Ok I don't undertsand how they could design a whole new carb that doesn't work like any other on the market and then go and put the idle needle on the wrong side. I know it won't effect performance of the engine in any way what so ever but it is a pain.
other than that its a top looking engine

+1....... I think it would be easier having the needle on that side of the carb since all the other adjustments are that side. I am sure once we get the enging that won't be a problem. Maybe Rick or Brent can chime in on the engine.

Seen it in person and from the questions i have asked to a specific driver he really likes it. Very linear power with good bottom end (no jumpy bits whilst going through the rev range) and a good fuel economy. 11mins they were doing and the engine wasn't lean at all (nice smoke trail everywhere). Definetly a engine to keep a eye on




but hey thats just my two cents lol
