cool ....keep us updated.....new 3001pipe?

Thinking about buyin the RB 5 motor with the 045 pipe,,,,,,,,,,would like some imput on the motor,thanks

We got in the C6 USA in yesterday 3/27/09 that we ordered last week. We sold it for the same price as Towerhobbies. My friend bought it so I can't wait to help him break it in and see how it rips. I got to hold the engine in my hands.

I would say go for it the S5 is a great engine with the perfect balance of bottom and top end. Im going to get one of them or I may hold out for one of the 09 models.

I put a post up in the classifieds here for my brand new c6 USA Edition head...

I have looked everywhere!!!! Where did you get the c6 us spec?

Has anyone ran RB's new line of engines? The B9, WS9, S9, H9, or J9? How do they preform to thier old line of engines? When will they be available, adn will they be cheaper or more expensive than their old line?

Straight from RB in Texas. So they should be showing up at shops any day now

Rick, WS9 for your new ride

I followed your experience and bought a RE11 pipe last weekend and tried it on my 1.5 gallon old ws7 and holy chit is right. I really did not like the ws7 with the RB 2045, ran too hot ;soft on the bottom and struggled with mileage (getting 8min) with the Re11 motor ran a little cooler, power came on earlier without losing top end and my mileage went over 11min w/7mm restricter.

It turned this motor from a dog to something amazing. tuning seemed a little more delicate but dont know if the weather was the culprit. more time will tell.

If anyone else has this motor/pipe combo laying around try and report your experience please.

RE11 I have been told is like the old 2050 OS pipe, I have a brand new 2050 I will have to try on the 7 in my boy's car. Any other suggestions on the C6.

I have has really good luk with the 2045, I ma interested if anyone has tried the 2045 and found a better pipe.

Is the new line of RB engines coming out soon, are they going to still sell the C6 as is?? or is it renamed (ie. B9)?

B9=C6 part for part

When will the new line be available?

does anyone have the part # for the screw that holds the carb on a ws7III? i left a message yesterday with RB but have not called back yet.

Hello Randy,
Here is a option that you can replace all the flat head screws with hex screws. I have these screws on one of my RB's and like it alot more then the flat heads. Less likely to strip.
