i was happy with the engines performance , i know whats inside of it and i know it will rock!!!

buggy - 9901ss/41021
truggy - 9853ss/41021 or 2084ss/41021

Yeah man I'll get him on it,

All he needs is a Rossi that runs right and I think he'd be much happier. Still can't believe that he runs a 9901 on a Toro in a Truggy.

After doing the break in on the XLT I got, I can't see doing it any other way. Those heaters are handy little things. I'll let you know how the rest goes.

Monty,

Got ahold of Doogie. Made the pitch to him and he has your number. That's about all I can do.

I have an N21R 3 port engine that I had the piston come apart in, and was wondering what my options are with it. It needs a new p/s/r but for a little more can get a whole engine. Or are there any other options that would make it worth keeping/fixing.

Thanks bud

Hey Monty do you have any turbo buttons in stock for the N21?

Would still like to talk with you about the email I sent. Thanks

I've found the Plus4 more to my liking in truggy over the 21-7FMS. The FMS seems soft on bottom but flat rips at the end of straights. I'm using a Dynamite 053 and header with the FMS and Plus4. Does the FMS like a completely different pipe?

I'm loving the run time from both engines in truggy. Over twelve minutes for both with the Plus4 consistently closer to 14 minutes. This is on tracks that are probably medium sized, much smaller than the Nitro pit. Sizes average about 200 x 100 or close to it. And usually the front or back is a full straight.

These two have performed flawless for many, many gallons and oh so consistent. I'm in hog heaven and thank Monty for your services sir. So it looks like I'm gonna need another plus4 from you sir if you still have them available.

thanx
Chris Pearce
