Hey Monty, I know you suggest Odonnell 100 plugs for some of your engines, just wondering how they differ from a 99? I know Od's adds say 100's are for Monster trucks and 99's are for racing engines and both are Medium range plugs? Just asking, and you know for which engine
thanks Joe

thanks Joe
the 100's are easy to tune and yield excellent power with exceptional idling capabilities .
the odo77 plug is also a very friendly well performing plug .
your engine isn't here yet but shipped out today to my place

Monty, i raced the JP 8 port for the 1st time today. Had a blast figuring out a new to me engine. It had really good snap out of the corners and 2/3 down the long straight. It needed a different pipe though. All i had was a 2045 RB and i put a short OS manifold on it. I will say that i was the only one that ran the 10 min. truggy race that didn't pit for fuel. Ed Bridges was there today and the 8 ports are his favorite nova engine. He thought it ran really well. I'm just used to my modded speed motors getting wild where the JP fell off a little, but the JP does have more bottom. I'm thinking abt trying either the 9901SS/41021 or the 9886/41021. What's your opinion please? Thanks, Rob Hamm.

Hey Montey, I have a few questions about the 21-4 and the 21-4c. Iknow they are pretty much the same mills except the rear ceramic bearing and some minor extra crank work on the 21-4c over the 21-4 tuned. Is there any other differences and have you heard anything bad about the 21-4c? I also didn't know if you sold them or were just on the service side of things.
Thanks again Bob

just let me know what you may need and i will do my best to get you hapy with the novarossi engine line.

i haven't had any issues with the plus 4's myself and dont foresee any issues with the plus4C's . differences are .5mm larger opening in crank throat and a killer ceramic bearing

same killer engine with a few upgrades

Monty,
I currently have a FMS for my truggy
and just picked up a used P5 "hot mod" with very good compression for my buggy. I took it apart and think it could be due for a front bearing so I am probably going to do ceramics all the way around. What size rear bearing goes in this thing. Also on another note it has a standard plug and I was wondering if there would be any benefit (noticeable) to switching to the turbo button?
