I took my engine apart to give it a good visuable inspection. Everything looked good. A little carbon build-up on the piston came off easily with a clean paper towel. I still have some pinch on the sleeve with the head button off!!! Took off the backplate to check the crank and rod and it still feels like new. Best engine so far!!

Which motor is recommended for truggy the race prep or the fully modded

I just ordered a race prep from A main for Silver State
Will there be a JS or EB rep at Silver State March 11th-14th?
I'm looking forward to running this engine. I'm hearing very good things about it.

Im wondering the same thing?

either engine is good in either car, its just a matter of which you like better and how deep your pockets are. I run the stock engine in my truck and its plenty. Full mod will rev quicker and have more rpm/top.

i have seen a race prep in a truggy, and it looked great. these motors are very smooth and have plenty of grunt. i have a full mod coming because it is suppose to be even smoother on the bottom and i have a heavy finger. lol

the full mod will run very similar to the stock engine just rev quicker and have more top.

I love the full mod in my buggy!

I attended Motorama this past weekend, and all I could say is this engine is something to be reckon with. I've had all types of engines in my years of RC and I had a chance to see it run in several different cars and it's the best bang for buck ratio on the market, hands down. I bought three just as gifts to my friends.....Pair that performance with the man behind the motor supporting everyone that had one and it can't be beat on any front. THIS ENGINE IS THE BEST KEPT SECRET..BUT IT WON'T BE FOR LONG....GET ONE WHILE YOU CAN...

TKO is the west coast rep for the EBMods engines. We will be at Silver State under the UpGrade tent. Please come and see us. If you have any needs or questions before the race you can email me @ [email protected]

well engines are ordered and should be here friday for this weekends race...ordered full mod for my truggy and race prep for buggy...is the full mod getting better fuel milage over the race prep as well? also what is the average run time also?

Thanks,
Ryan

Thank you Peter I look forward to meeting you at Silver State. I may even be at Hot Rod Hobbies the Tues. before SS running some fuel through it and breaking in my new Truggy. (too cold, snowy and muddy here in Colorado)


I'd like to also thank Ed B for taking the time to talk with me about these engines today

I cant wait to run this engine this weekend at hcrc. After seeing it run this past weekend and watching my friend put a raceprep in the expert A I know I will be happy. Thanks again e.b. mods and lucky 7

Sorry for this question but 90% of the racing I do is 1/10 electric. I was wondering what changes will I need to do with the head shimming to run this engine at high altitudes. I will be racing this engine in SoCal and Nevada to start and I assume that the engine is shimmed for those altitudes. Most of my racing will be done in Utah and Colorado at high altitudes with 30% nitro.
Thank you
Brian

brian, i would run the 30% at normal attitudes then run 40% in Utah and Colorado. the deck comes set and we really dont want ppl messing with them. If Ed or I are in hi attitudes we run 40%
