What do you guys think about this new engine?

http://www.hpieurope.com/piw.php?lang=en&partNo=101584

That is the same as the OFNA JL 21

crankcase looks different to me

OS based?

3.30HP! thats power haha.

I totally agree

50,000 rpm too.

No Ofna JL ever hit 50k RPM. I hardly doubt this one will either but it's claimed and it looks promising. This needs to be sold through Hot Bodies so the Infrantry Team can run these as part of the sponsorship.
It almost looks like it's going to be a European part only.

It's called marketing. The newbs just love to see inflated hp and rpm numbers. But in the end, it's still a $200-2 gallon motor.

haha i saw this a while back and was wondering about those outrageous claims...I can't tell what engine it's based off but it has an adjustable carb insert and looks somewhat promising..I wonder will it be sold through HB wouldn't mind seeing how it performs

They are very good engines.... especially fast when modified.... not Italian quality, but the best of the Taiwanese engines IMO.... So far the modified ones have been getting 8 gallons plus and are faster then any of the much pricier Italians ! Nothing like running over the backside of a $400.00 Italian with a sub $200.00 Taiwanese....

ha 50,000 rpm, 3.33 hp lol but its a nice looking engine and its a 5 port it might be good i dont know if they will sell it here though.

i like your avatar greg b and its true.

50 000 RPM LOL and 3.3 HP ..... not quite.....but they do have a killer top end.....

Hi.

I hope to race one from 2011. Any of you what pipe and header the English HB driver used at the British Nat?

I didn't know that anyone had run the engine yet. I don't know about pipe as I need to find out if it's going to make it in the states.
