Hi guys,

I've a modded toro nero, and i think the bearings have to be replaced, may i ask what're the exact sizes of the front and rear bearings? Or there's a specific part no. for each bearing?
Btw, is there any good replacement instead of nova bearing?

Thanks a lot for any help i can get.

Whats the difference in a 2096 vs 9901 pipe? This will be ran in a p5 in a buggy with the 21 manifold. 6.5mm vent....Any recommendations is appreciated!

If u have both try them out. But you really can't go wrong with either one.

nrm1977 05-23-2013 11:08 PM

I do have both Larry :) ...just curious what to expect from the two. I've read better mileage with the 9901.

with a P5, even on the tightest tracks I would run the 2096. The 2096 has a slightly softer bottom end, but a lot more top end IMHO. Also better mileage from the 2096. The softer bottom end is good, it reduces wheel spin so buggy hooks up better.

Thanks. I have experience with both on different engines. The 2096 is my favorite plus the 2058 on Nova engines. The main track I race at ( www.familyhobbiesraceway.com ) is a medium size that can go from dusty and slippery to blue/black groove to almost concrete when coke syrup is used with some short run ups. The 2096 works great in all those conditions and when mated to the Buku clutch, look out :sneaky:

Hi monty,

Thanks a lot for the offer. I'm in the Philippines, and actually i got it used from a racer here, and it was modded by you(great work sir, the motor is really powerful), but since it's used several and several of gallons(and it's being pinched now), the bearings are not that smooth anymore, so need those bearings to bring it back to life again

Well I've been reading this thread for quite some time now, and I'm itching to get me a novarossi for my Xb9 buggy. I've been looking at the keep off 21-4. What would be a good pipe and header combo for this motor. I'm looking for decent power and economy. Please give me some ideas.

I'm not firm on the keep off yet, so if there's a better option I'm listening.
