And possibly different (lower) engine mounts...

Yup, it's just the last 4mm or so, after it steps down to smaller diameter. And like he said, lower motor mount, so the bump box will hit the flywheel.

Made this Nova plug guide in Fahrenheit. Hope it helps.

Virtus .21 on road piston/sleeve/conrod in off road engine
Guys what is the difference between the virtus.21 on road piston /sleeve /conrod(NVR08593) set VS the virtus. 21 off road one(NVR08594)?
Are they interchangeable? Can I use the on road set ine the off road engine? Please give me some help here! |
They are interchangeable but you will not get a same engine when putting an onroad set in an offroad engine
The onroad has 9 ports, I believe the offroad not. But the most difference is the exhaust port, with an offroad the exhaust port is much lower to provide more torque. |

The crankcase is made to fit all, the difference in height of the exhaust will not be more than 0.5~1mm . If you put an onroad P/S set in an offroad engine it will make some more rpm but you will loose torque which is more important ro accelerate a 3kg car from corner to corner.

Thank you very much! I will try to find the off road set! |

As I can see the Rolling has the same p/s/r as the Virtus but different main bearing. Same dimensions 14.5x26x6 but normal one. Do you know how the Rolling compare to the virtus in terms of performance? I assume the will be exactly the same. I may buy the rolling and use the p/s/r in my virtus or just use it as is. Thank you very much!!! |
