Rex

yeah, i'm a novice driver just wanting to freshen up the engine for now. Thank you.

Hey rex so what is the difference between the limited edition paloma and the blue head one ? I think u said the limited doesn't have the longer stroke but what is there difference power wise ?

22Racer 11-09-2014 11:02 AM

The St. blue head Paloma is very similar to a Bonito, extra long stroke. The Ltd. edition is a standard long stroke (16.28x16.8) same as the P5 and most others. The ltd. edition is a 7 port, I thought it looked very similar to a Fusion X7. The ltd. does not have the Team piston and the Std. does. Power wise I am not sure, both would make great power. I am thinking the blue head for a truggy and ltd. ed. for a buggy.
I did not get a limited edition in but can order it if you are interested.

The Grp uses a larger piston pin, I am not aware of any other rods that will work. There are a couple other engines that are made by them that will work, Assendancy and one other.

The Paloma limited edition was too powerful for my buggy. It throws my truggy around pretty good!

Rex, You have a pm.

22Racer 01-26-2015 06:48 PM

I expect to be very busy this spring. I am the only one that does my engines and with modifying, rebuilding etc. it will get hectic this spring. Send in your engines early or dont wait until the last minute to order a modified engine.

Thank you for your support!
