nope the gold head paloma has a different bore and stroke. the piston and sleeve i think is from the 21-7 fms from the mid-late 2000s and was just a way for nova to use up old stock

It is wron to think the amount of ports has something to do with milage and power. ok so help a rookie out that’s what this place is for right |
there is a lot to consider with ports and stroke
generally less ports has more torque.. long stroke generally is more bottom end motor. but there is a lot of other factors that determine a motors characteristics. I prefer long stroke in truggy and square stroke in buggy.. truggy I run rolling and now testing the p5 for power and mileage in truggy to see if it can hang with the "higher" end motors. so far so good for a 160 dollar motor. in buggy I like the mantra and mephisto.. both square stroke but you can ask the which motor is best a 100 times and get a 100 different answers.. go to the novarossi website and browse the current motors and look at the stroke. rpm and ports.. you will start to see the difference in all the motors. hope this helps you out a little on your selection |
Thanks buddy that did, I guess what I’m looking for is easy tuning reliable idling and good torque to push a truggy. What run times you get with that rolling in a truggy? |
track dependent and weather but generally 9-10:30 on the rolling
the p5 was still rich and a tick pinch yet but a solid 10 mins so far.. changed the header to a shorter one to try and get a tick more top end.. if the rain holds out I will know sat night on how it pulls. |
