And no I am not offering the r2r service just yet , that consumes a lot of my time and the weather around here is not right just yet as I actually break the engines in in a car and not on a break in bench .

The part #s will more than likely be different for that nitrotec engine and all the p/s sets will now have /10 after the part# as this is how they are designating the sets that have the all machined pistons . Maybe not all the p/s sets but most

If your front bearing and rear main bearing are not aligned the engine will run inefficient and wear itself out quicker .
Ill give ya a tip , change your rear bearing then your front , it has seemed to make a little difference in all the bearing changeouts I have done .
An untrue crankshaft can also cause the same issues

would brand new engines not be properly aligned from factory?
so that I understand you your saying remove and replace rear bear then remove and then replace front??
is there an alignement tool or something ?

and yes on the installation order
just a bearing extractor/installer

anybody want one of the two of these

Hi.
How did the filament look like? Does it looked like it is pushed in to the glowplug body?
If this is the case, you have to much compression or running fuel with to much nitro. I would advice you to put in one 0,1mm shim in any case. I have exeprience with ghost flameouts on some Nova engines and it always goes away when i add one 0,1mm shim.
If the filament is burned or black, engine is running too lean and needs to be re-tuned.
