But what is "easy", that is a relative term...
youre a very funny guy Billy

what you think about having some conversations at one of the next races more than just a passing by and saying HI conversation

I think you have me confused with someone else...

And I still stand by what I said. For me, the idea of cutting the sleeve is easy, what tools to use, how to use them, what to cut, and what those cuts do. But I have a background that makes it easy... Which is why I said it's all relative.

Crank mods... a little more mysterious, but still fairly straight forward... The whole package, best left to guys like you.

Hey guys..

Just some news on the XACT stuff. Amain now have stocks of the most popular spares available and have more of the Sportive, including pullstart and marine variants..

We have also been ultra busy over the winter developping the X- ACT PRO 5. This is a big step up featuring 5port Liner, lightened piston, new crankcase, machined head, silicone ramped and coated crank..
All the parts manufacturing is now complete and we are begining the assembly stage here in the UK with stocks ready next week..

Stay tuned for images and more specs in sue course ;-)
Fell free to like us on FB for more news...

Hey, we now have the PRO 5 available.#

After the good reception of the Sportive we have upped the game somewhat with a new style crankcase, 5 port piston and liner, coated crank and low profile head..
Using the same carb for easy and solid tuning this ups the power and keeps life simple for tuning / set up.

In stock and ready to ship now worldwide..

So is anybody running this engine? Would this be an ok 1st time nitro engine that would go on a 1/8 truggy?

Also XAct , what pipes do you guys recommend? i'm going to give this guy a shot, nothing to lose really.

Does the PRO 5 crank fit in to the 3 port? When will the PRO 5 be available on Amain?

Hey, yep the PRO 5 crank will drop in the Sportive but its also worth adding the Pro5 backplate to reduce crankcase volume at the same time (X-21S0049)

Regards the Pipes, 053, 0801 and those in a similar vain will work very nicely..

Regards availability in the US, get onto Amain and get them to send the order through to us, we have them ready to ship to them!

Well, I know what my next engine is going to be. What is the price of the PRO 5 going to be? Will a 2013 or a 2058 pipe work well with either of these engines?

Thanks

Hey, AMain had them delivered into their location middle of last week. I assume they are doing photos etc and getting it on the system.

I do keep checking back and will post up when its listed.
in the interim, it may be worth calling them up and seeing if its on the backend already before its hit the website..
