I wanted to see if someone on here could help me out with the choice of a engine...i got a evo outlaw promod chassis from "drag race concepts" with a werks pro .21 engine looking for something a little faster what do you think about the NOVAROSSI BONITO .21 engine from "rb mods".going too be using it for drag racing track length is any where from 150 foot to 250 foot long.

Bonito XLB or Keep Off XLB for same price. What one to buy and why?
Probably truggy engine as sounds like both are to much for buggy ?
Will Bonito head fit on a Keep Off? Looks like exact same head other than graphics.

Thanks

Hi guys,

I'm looking toward a new engine and decided on a Novarossi (I had a 353 a long time ago).
Today would you still recommend a P5XLT with a 9901 or going up the line for something more expensive ? (plus4 btt?)
Looking for something for the long term (I'll do some club racing with it). Don't wan't a 3 needle carburetor as I wouldn't know how to set it and I probably wouldn't benefit from it even if I knew.

I've given up on my second hand Alpha (0.25mm play on conrod, the crankshaft is 4.85mm with 0.05mm oval and the piston is 100% free without the cyl head...).

Thank you in advance

Thanks for the reply.

I decided to play safe. Unfortunaly there's no retailer for fusion's engine in France .
I just ordered a P5XLT with a 2096 + 51020 and some n°6 Nova turbo plugs.
Our track is relatively small so I don't need the high rpm of the btt. Many guys have the P5XLT at the track which will help too .

Yes bonito ,keep off series all fit each other as long as its 4 bolt pattern

Bonito and keepoff 7 are exact same engines aside from a dfrnt rear bearing , i about guarantee you would not notice any dfrnc in performance or tunability

May I also suggest the Werks 2058 pipe/header set ( if you can get your hands on one there). Amazing combo when paired with the P5xlt.

I have a question. I bought a truggy and it came with a p5 that was supposedly just been broken in on the bench and not ran in the truggy. Today I was wrenching on it and had it upside down and noticed what seemed to be a bunch of liquid come from the pipe. Took a few pictures of it but kinda hard to see it. Is this normal? Fairly new to nitro but I have another engine that has over a gallon on it and nothing leaks out the pipe. I also haven't fired up the p5 yet.

Normal for break in. The oil doesn't burn off at the same rate as the other ingredients in the fuel, that's why it in the fuel as a lubricant. Once the engine is broken in and you get up to a race tune you will have less oil left in the pipe as your tune will be leaner.
