Use an RB Plug, number 6 should see you good in those temps.

Possibly interesting for somebody..:

I guess the parts bins they were using for the Blast series are about used up, so now they're dumping off the individual parts, as if there are not enough left to make whole engines...

I have the new kanai 3 port.so far it has been great.very easy to tune very smooth power.feels very similar to a nova plus 4.I have a 2058 pipe with the medium fuel mizer insert and it will do 11:40 a tank.hope that helps.

This is in my 2.0 EU, BTW.

This engine is still going strong. Might finally be time for a rear bearing. No idea how many gallons. Still original rod and sleeve, plenty of compression. All i have done was put a front bearing in it. Running ODO99t plugs, they last so long, i don't even now how long it is between...

RB is all I will run from here on out. V15 prolly going in next... if this thing ever quits. ha.

Modded V11 in my truck is a beast, but is a baby compared to the stock one in my buggy. (Age wise, not power)

I've asked before but I gotta' ask again real quick(before I place an order..): is the V15 going to be better at all than the V14? I can get the V14 here WITH PIPE for a decent price. The V15 lists "double balanced" in the description, unlike any of the other Blasts.. It costs nearly the same as the V14, but without a pipe..

Well, not really actually.. But I have to order it from Amain, which entails a certain hassle I wouldn't have ordering the V14 here from a shop in-country.. I can get the V15 to me for about €150, the V14 with pipe for €175-180.. I don't care about the pipe really btw.. Would just sell it anyway.. For me it's just a question of which engine is the better value..

Herrsavage 10-31-2013 10:03 AM

So anybody run a V15 yet?.. :tire::tire:

I have a Rb 1003 ws7 engine thats been sitting for years. Its in excellent shape , still feels smooth , has a lot of pinch . Its had 3 tanks through it on the bench in anticipation of using it . Any thoughts or concerns about putting an old paper weight back into use ?

The price was right , and its my first nitro , so I dont have anything to loose. I figure , if I make any real mistakes , better to do it on this motor then something I just spent a wad of cash on .

Iam also wanting to know how the blast v15 works. I have a blast v12 that runs just awesome with a 2058 pipe. best motor I have have had in a while and got it for $ 150.00 on a main and want to get another blast when this one wears out. 5 gallons and going strong. I am a RB fan now.
