has alittle less bottom end in truggy, buggy is a little lighter and gives it better low end and tons of top end as well, the GX5R has tons of low end for those heavier truggies, MOTO at NITRO NORTH is a super guy to deal with, just received stuff today from him!

i havent ran the GXII HO, just the GX5r, im very happy with it! someone might be able to awnser that for you that has ran it. I heard it has the bottom end grunt like the GX5R and the top end likr the GX7R, kinda the best of both worlds.

I'm going to need some help with the new go-II ho. I cleaned it out reassembled/ re-oiled/installed new glow plug/preheated/engine is froze!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tried to turn over thought it was going to fire right up[sounded like it] I used my snap-on 3/8th drive breaker bar with 8mm socket on it to get it to go around. Thought for sure I lost a c-clip. Taken engine apart nothing,no shavings no c-clip off piston not scored/sleeve great no lost glow plug tip. Only thing I can think of is the front bearing seems notchy in 1 spot but I don't think that would cause engine to lock in place tdc. Or is it that the engine is just that tight? any one have any trouble? I am going to put it all back together and try again.

I love my Competition heat but it doesn't get a motor hot enough for break in in my opinion. On a tight motor I get it up to 240 degrees or so at the head and about 180 at the block witha heat gun.
I am getting a GxII from Trey to try out.
