Jay,
15 gallons....That is sweet :D The OS VZB Speed engine model do resize well (nature of the beast ie manufacuring processing/materials used/engine design) just the same as Novarossi based engine models. Many reports from customers exceeding 10 gallon longevety', but 15 or more is only with the higher end engine models maintaned well/using good fuel as Monty as metioned. Ive seen great piston + sleeve sealing surface finish conditions coming from guys running both Byrons and Cold Fussion fuels. And those that know my work know I pay close attention to piston+sleeve sealing surfaces' along with sealing clereance accuracy my process. Tollerences have to be correct with both for the best in performance & Longevety results.
I'll be looking out for the XZB package, and any issues inspected as you know will be noted on invoice, and serviced accordingly.:nod:

Thanks!

Jay,
Shoot me email or post here an aprox date (roundabout month good enough)I serviced that set. "I am curious" as to what sealing surface condition notes I made and what I did in process. Also conrod and bearing replacements you did? 15 gallons on an engine is few and far inbetween. :nod:
Thank You
Ray

You got that rite! Individual taylored fit used set beats a new set anytime imo...standard procedure on everything of mine after 3 or 4 gallons wether new or not...why wait till its a tempermental, inconsistent headache when great things are just $26 and a couple days away!
