The B11 should be a little more mellow compared to the B10. The timing is not quite as aggressive and and will get better fuel economy. I will get mine this week I hope and be able to start the break-in over the weekend.

I won 2 brand new piston/sleeve sets on ebay last night, 15 UK pounds each, hah! A S3 and S5 set. I read they both fit in the s7 case, and my dad happens to have one of those. I guess I'll try the S5 first, for my truggy.

Anyone have problems starting a gallon old ws7? I just got a used one and the pinch is so tight at tdc that I have trouble getting it "unstuck" with a pair of padded vice grips on the flywheel. I have it preheated and I backed the plug out a little and it still locks at tdc and burns up my starter box wheel. Any input would be appreciated.

Those will fit any of the S7, WS7, or WS9's as well as the S5 and S3's they were made for. They are all square stroke engines tho so your not going to have a ton of bottom end right off the bat, you will have to play around with gearing and clutch setup to get the bottom end just right.

RB C10
Dear all,
can you confirm that the C10 comes with cermaic bearings as i just broke in this engine dismantled it to check that everything is fine and the rear bearings seems like a normal steel bearing, is this right?
Thanks

Can you post a link? There is a C6 USA that is one of my favorite engines. There is also a USA combo they had recently had that was an S3 USA combo, I also think there was a USA version of the S5. All of them are Nova produced engines tho. The K10/K11 and the Sport10/Sport11 are the Taiwan engines.

That is not an easy engine to find!!! If you do find one make sure you grab it up, they were a limited production from about 3 years ago so it could be tough.
