The newer NSR12 or RR12L crankshafts that I've seen as spares now have "extra" metal where you would usually put the "red silicone"... So now, I would think you only needed to smoothen that part with the dremel to create the air ramp because in stock form, that part is pretty rough...

I have no complantes with my engine. I was just wondering how it differed from the other ns12s3. Thanks for the help.

I just bought a Novamega SX15 EV5 3 port and I was wondering if the parts are compatible with Novarossi CX15R/N or TX15R/N parts such as the crank, piston/sleeve, head button (or as Novamega calls it combustion chamber). etc. Thanx guys.

Need the info...
Hey guys, I'm hoping you can help me out a bit. I just picked up a brand new Novarossi RS-12 S1 and I am trying to find out about it. It was too good of a price to pass up, so I figured I'd buy first and ask questions later. I can't recall hearing anything bad about ANY Rossi motor, so it was a pretty good gamble.
The motor box says 2003, so it goes to reason why I can't find any info on it. It's a 3-port, SG crank, purple head (I think standard plug), and that's about all I know on it.
Can anyone shed some more light on the details of this motor? Is is more suited to one type of track than another? Anything special I should know about it? It will be going into a short track dirt oval car, too.
With it being a motor no longer made, what P/S/R are best suited for eventual replacements? I think I may know where to find some RS P/Ss remaining out there, so I may pick those up just in case.
Looking forward to your input,
doug

I have the same engine, production date is the same but my control code is N for what ever that's worth.
Dennis Richey told me the crankshaft is'nt very good, he had seen alot of breakage especially when modding. He said he seen some last 5 gallons of fuel some not last 5 mins. I think he said it has a 11mm crank and the later Rossi NRS-S3 has 11.5 mm cranks. I think Palmaris Racing also has a crankshaft that will drop right in.
