RB Concept Engine Thread..

Hey guys. I've got a RB 5 port and a Novarossi Rex P5. Both old, non turbo style engines. It's been a while since I bought plugs for the RB and the P5 is still NIB. What plugs are you or have you ran in either of these mills? One of the local shops has these SH plugs, anyone tried them? Thanks for the help.

Both engines run a med plug stock, the SH plugs should work fine. OS non turbo plugs are short body plugs and will not work in a Nova based engine. McCoy plugs will work, Odonnell will work, Novarossi, RB, basically anything that isn't OS or made for OS standard engines.
hey whats up, i would swear i have an os non turbo plug in my ws7II and it runs. is this possible?
will the engine run at all or no?

Yes, it will run, but it is short, to wear it does not extend all the way into the button combustion area, basically. not as efficient as an Rb plug, or others that are longer than the short OS plug.

mine pulled on a vspec pretty good in this video and I could have caught him but he would have put me into the wall if I did lol.

My K9 has almost a gallon on it now and is really starting to come alive. It runs consistantly in the 205-210 range and has really good rip. I am going to start leaning it out now and get it tuned for max power and see what it will do. I am running it in a MBX6 with the 2045 pipe and 192 header and have no complaints at all running against OS Speeds, Reedys and JLs.

Part #02010-001. Should fit every Engine, Clucth. I tryed it on my losi 4 shoe and fit perfect the way they its made it well fit any motor im asuming not 100% but really cant see how. A great price too at only 16.99 give or take at you local hobby shop. I TRULY think it well make you engine bearing last longer And Your motor due too not any have mud dirt geting any were it every again. The rb Shark 9 a great motor but im really laking top end go to try a novarossi 9886 pipe with the L shape ofna header to see if i can wake it up. My temps are around 260 i know you shouldnt go by temps but all my other Rbs run around 220-250 with great power. What do you think Chris P. I feel i have a good bit of fuel thought it 2 1/2 gallon and more. Thanks for any help bro Speedyrob

Try the 9886 pipe and see how it works for you. My Shark9 is just starting to break in and it seems to do great on the straight. I am running the 192 header with 2045 pipe on it as well. As for temps I don't know what mine is temping at, I never even carry a temp gun because then I always end up chasing a tune. If you have good smoke I would say go ahead and lean it a little more and ignore the temp gun. Once my engines are broken in I lean them out till they perform well, produce smoke, and don't lean bog. If you really want to know the temp use the water test, it won't tell you the exact temp but if it boils off as soon as it hits it might be a little too warm.
