I also have a similar concern about picking up another Nova engine, actually a Max engine.
My last two were Max but since they are Nova based, I am not sure if I should continue getting them as I am going to need a new one soon... |
Max has his own full production line and does not need to rely on Novarossi.

Piston + Liner, could also be called Piston + Sleeve or Piston + Cylinder if you really feel like it, people will know what you mean.
Not quite sure if I agree on 5% driving + 95% tech statement though. Sure it's important to know your chassis + engine setup and it's easy to make gains with that early on. But quality track time where you're focusing on improving your driving is invaluable once you've run out of things you can blame on the car :D |
Hello,
So I was servicing my Mephisto and noticed two of the crank weights were loose, one actually fell out. Has anyone had this happen before? Can I run it without the weights? Thanks!! |
i won't use it for sure.

I had it with a 35plus21 with one of the 2 inserts
I would sugest to use a glueing loctite like 648 to put it back |

MAX his latest engines use rods which are made by Hudy. All I know they have a 4.8mm crankpin, not sure if the length is the same.

I have 3x mephisto and none of them have that problem.
Do you have any pictures? You can see the weight all the way to the right was out, the middle weight also was loose. |
