Thanks Ben
i am still trying to work out the details on the crank coatings . i really hope it works out quickly

if properly run in , the engines should last for a min. of 6 gallons .
again , if properly run in , there is no need to replace the rod after break in

no , the crankpins are not coated on the nova engines but i have seen them last and stay within tolerance for 16 gallons personally


happy motorin',
monty

Monty,
any luck in finding me a 41021 header in your stuff, I'm going to pair it with a Rex 9886 pipe for my p5xs PLUS

I have to give big props to Monty. I borrowed a friends modded 3 port this weekend and I have to say, it was very impressive. I was getting 10-12 minutes of run time and it had plenty of power to go along with it, dialed little engine.

Not at all. I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't feel like I was at a disadvantage at all. I could make a triple that a lot of other guys could not. You will be getting an order from me soon. I'm just trying to buy this one off of Tom first.
