Should have some new for you after tonight i got almost a gal though the motor yesterday and heading to the track at 3 to get more fuel though it see how things go might try to run it in the race to night ill let you know. So far it seems to be spot on. Just what i was looking for, this is going to be a great little motor for sure. Great Job Monty. Hope you had a good Christmas.

Hi Monty,
I read where you said you really like the Novarossi front bearings with the double seals. Do you like these better than the TKO's? Also wanted to tell you how much I like that engine you put together for me at Nitrocross. It was the plus case and crank with the P5 sleeve. Man where you right on how smooth that plus crank makes that motor. Awesome bottom end but not explosive and man does it love to rev.:nod::nod::nod::nod::nod: Looking forward to seeing you at the Nitro Challenge.

Have fun,
Burn Nitro

Ya the novarossi front bearings are THEE best front bearing on the market , period. I don't think anybody will dispute that one and if they do , well................ they are wrong .

Good news on the engine , I hope you get a long life out of it and it treats you well . Just remember ........filter maintenance , filter maintenance , filter maintenance !!!

I have a few of the 17011 front bearings in stock 25$ each or 32.50$ if you want them in ceramic . I have ceramic balls that I personally install in those bearings , you won't find them anywhere else in ceramic.

Curious how you dis-assemble a main bearing ? is there a way to pop the races out ? (i guess so they assembled it didnt they) :lol:
