Hey guys I saw the Novarossi 35 plus in my LHS and surprisingly it's $529.99 :mad: . I thought it'd be less. I can get the RB C5 for 40 bucks less than will put the smack down on that engine. I'm still looking for replacement piston/sleeve sets for my TOP and my LHS has an RB C3 p/s set that is also a 7 port. Anyone remember what the C3 was like? The specs on my top was said to be pretty good so I'm wondering if using the RB set will decrease performance or increase. I'd also get a good price on it as well.

I have both the JP R-03 full option and the 35 Plus 21 and the 35 Plus is faster and costs less...

It's their newest and it's more like a Plus 21-3. It has a bigger bearing (14.5mm) than the 321P (14mm) and it's a 9 port vs. 8 port for the 321. It's what they used at the worlds. Harder to tune but with great mid range and top end.

A little harder to tune, but faster than the JP 03 full option? Wow what an engine. Makes me wonder why JP's are so much? :confused: :rolleyes:

My next engine will be a 35 Plus :sneaky:

Excellent! Hopefully I'll be there too. What class are you running?

Just want to know how your 35Plus21 working, it it stock or modified version. I am ordering one this week either from Uriah or Jim, I think it is a hair faster than JP R03, whay do you think. I am going to break in a Plus213C this afternoon and I have seen this engine in action and it is quite good as well.

I have not decided. Maybe both 1/8 and 1/10, that is if I make it in the first place...

It is stock. It's rather hard to tune as for some reason the top needle is a lot more sensitive. I was told that the top needle is more blunt so it's more sensitive but I went on Nova's web site and it shows the same part as the 321P.

Performance wise, I think acceleration especially mid range is surperior than the JP. Top end is also a little faster but that could be just tuning.
