Good to hear Marshon!! I have another one I may be selling. Originally I was going to keep it, but my love affair with my B7pro is too strong. I really don't care for too much bottom (I know that sounds wierd), and I'de rather have that transfered to the top of the band like the B7 does. Basically I pin it and occasionally turn. ;)

I say "may selling" cuz I think I am going to a .28 in my truggy. It's getting hot rodded and I need to make sure that's the plan before I let my B5 go. I'll know next week if you PM me. I sent all my motors (4) this week to the mod shop, so for $20 I had him throw a fresh pinch on it. It will basically need to be broken in and has a gallon on it.

Mark, have you tried the 2057 pipe on your B5? I was having a discussion w/ Ron and he suggested the 2057 for the buggy to smooth/tame the bottom, increase the top a little and gain run time of 30+ seconds. I was thinking of getting the B7 pro for the screaming top end for my buggy and Ron basically convinced me to run the B5. The significantly greater run time for the B5 outweighed the modest gain in top end for the B7 from a racing standpoint. Before selling I'd play with clutch setup (carbon shoes, .9 springs), a 2057 pipe, and gearing (up 1, maybe 2 teeth on clutchbell) to achieve your desired soft bottom and screaming top. Food for thought....

dishsoap, Glad you got it! it helps to put a little oil n the lower o-ring in the case to help it seat, also you can run the carb without the o r -ring on it. The lower o -ring in the case is enough to seal it up just fine.

Finally got the missing link for my B5's today now to spend the rest of the day and night getting her ready. I can smell the nitro already

Nice! Let us know what you think once you get a chance to run it!

love the wrap especially the decal above fastlane

Any Canadians on this thread know where you can by Werks fuel from in Canada? I know a guy who can order through Canwestrc but he can only get it by the pallet... I just ordered a B5 and would love to run Werks 30% in it, just need to find someone how sells it and can get it to my door at a reasonable price.

Thanks!
Jon

I got my 2057 in today it looks great.

Got my 2057 too!!:nod: suprised A-Main doesnt have it listed yet?

New pipe looks good. I need to get ahold of Ron to get a new 2057 sent my way. Anyone have any feedback on it yet? I need to tame the B5 beast down a hair.
