I thought he was asking what engine I just got....hahahaha

first off, Monty is a good guy at heart. Not just rc, he's a good guy, that's why I want to run for him and represent his product line, he cares about his customers.

21-4, p5x, 21-7bt, n21b.....21-4 was my favorite, great power from a dead standing idle, awesome midrange that pulled hard when needed with a endless topend that far outstretched our backstretch. I sent it to Monty at 6 1/2 gall for a general inspection. I remember him saying there was not a speck of dirt in it and how my filter maintenance was spot on.....I take care of my mills, Im not afraid to let them see 260° either.....but I DONT tune by temps EVER.....thanks for everything Monty, I look forward to representing HES in St. Louis area

The "new" ones are the same as the old ones , they might have done a few tweaks on crank timings or what not but porting wise they are the same as previous M3 , M5B, M8B

I don't have a source for these engines or I would definitely carry them , they are made by novarossi

Monty, my HE'S P5 was great today. Everything was really good in the main until the engine decided to "drop it's nuts"!! It became really rich and I was having trouble clearing jumps. Now that it's fully broken in, I can't wait to see what it will do.

Questions?? undecided

Monty help me make up my mind, I'm picking up a fusion motorsport modded toronero( used w/3 gals on it) tomorrow, I don't know if I should leave the FMS in my truggy and put the toro in my buggy or vice versa. I have a 9901 pipe and 41021 header that i tried on the FMS, I didn't like it took away the low and mid end away,would that set up be better on the toro? oh I lso have a 41005, my 2084ss/41021 are on the FMS right now. I want your opinion before I start tearing down/swapping stuff around, thanks man.

Hey Monty, I broke the head off of a screw to the backplate. Any suggestions how I can get it out? Or just run it with 3?
