Hey Montey,
I'll be getting a toro nero from you, hopefully here in the next week. Was wondering if the nova header pipe, 41021 will fit the dynamite pipes, ie, 053, 086?
Also was wondering, in your opinion, which is a better motor? The toro or the new bonito(sp) for either buggy or truggy for club racing? Also was planning on having you tune the toro for me also.
Thanks
Mike

The new bonito has some very minor timing changes to improve engines power delivery and after all it is new :D

The silicone filled crank is the biggest improvement to either of these engines for sure :nod:

And yes the 41021 will bolt up to the dyn pipe


Lmk if you need anything

I picked up a good used max power m5b. The shim stack under the button measures out at .80mm.Do you know if this is good for 30%? Thanks,I'll be ordering that plus 21-5 crank from you soon.

If it's fresh leave the shimming, if it's fully broke in drop it to.70mm for added low end power, tri exhaust needs it ;)

i wouldn't do it... may as well get the X3.. the stuff JP did on those engines back then are pretty much standard on the Novas now... those things are like 4 or 5 years old

X7
 
Monty how does the power and bottom end of the X7 compare to the FMS-Hotmods???? At one time alot of the really good drivers at Rev thats all they would use.

kgombe 04-02-2011 02:32 PM

you cant have an engine ready in 2 1/2 weeks ? :weird::lol:


you have quite a few engines Kijana , toughest part for you is deciding which one to run ;)


i would have to say i would prefer the X7 over the fms Bill :D

Hey Montey,
Is nova discontinuing the Toro Nero? Replacing it with the bonito?
