Its different...its very very fast in the mid and top, but doesn't have the bottom of the B5...Just a characteristic of the engines in general.....In a Buggy the mod Ninja is absolutely ballistic...
You are crazy bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. In a good way. I have never seen someone so passionate about engines. I like coming across people that have so much enthusiasm and truly believe in a particular item. Great Job Neal. |
Hey Neal. I think Ill send you the O'donnell .21ss I just ordered it from Tower. And got some TKO Ceramics on the way for it too. If I send them with the motor would you mind putting them in? Please PM me with a link to all the info I need to send this motor to you and what all you would need from me. Feel free to take your time with it I know you havent done alot of work on these since they arent the most popular of motors. Well look forward to hearing from you.

Depends on 1,the motor you buy 2,what you plan to be doing with it 3,and your cash flow.
1. some motors have poor bearings from the get go (i am pretty sure all the motors Neal stocks you will be safe with though) so it can be a good upgade. 2. If you plan on bashing down the park there is prob no need, but it still would not hurt. 3. if you dont have the cash its not a big deal if you dont have them. I run ceramics in all my race engines (just my personal choice) i find the motors spool a little faster and rev a little harder with them. Its not a huge difference from what i have found but it is there. Ceramic or not you will love your clocked mill!!!!!:nod: |

However there are some things to be considered with modified engines... - they rev harder, faster and higher then stock engines do....so if you tune it lean, damage can happen faster - because they have more power and RPM they can be over revved easier. - If you abuse the modified engine, damage can happen faster - tuning and setup do become a little more critical..these are legitimately modified engines, they do make substantially more output then the stock version...Any time you increase the output of an engine the sensitivity to setup and conditions does increase...However once setup and tuned correctly they will run much sweeter then the stock counterpart will..you will not only see a difference, you will also feel it in your trigger as well hear it in the exhaust note...the modified engines flat out scream ! Thanks Maximo! |
