I see the bearing is a 16002. RC mushroom has the 16001 which looks the same bearing but not ceramic. Anybody know where I can get the 16002?

How do i get the back bearing out of the 35PLUS21? The bore in the crankcase is 15.5 mm and the bearing is 15.5mm so you cant get a tool in to tap it out. Is there a bearing puller that I can get to pull it out? I dont see how as there is nothing to grab hold of!!

Top Issue with compression
Welp I've been running the top for about say 13 tanks or so on 30%byrons race blend, previously broken in with 20% Odonnell, and I noticed I could turn the engine over withmy index finger and thumb. There is a bit of pinch there, so upon inspection of the engine everything seems fine in there - no scratches, no worn parts, etc. I realized who ever assembled the engine, slipped two bronze shims under the big metal one. One appears to be .2mm and the other is .1mm. I removed the .1mm and noticed there was a bit more to the pinch at the top. The engine never seemed to clear out when the #6 RB was in there, but the Nova #7 CTFS worked great. Think any detonation will occur? I was going to start the engine a while back when it was warm out and I did get some sort of backfire as the car blasted my friend in the face with a puft of smoke/air. Any ideas guys? Should I remove that other .2mm shim and leave the normal silver shim in there? I know others ran their engines with no shims and just cooler plugs withmore success and that article stating sometime shims aren't necessary? Then again when I had my engine it did have quite a lot of compression.

As far as how the compression feels, don't worry too much, it's usually a sign of a well seated piston/sleeve. Remember, if the pinch at TDC is really tight, the engine will run hot and not make the power it should.
I usually am concerned more with connecting rod/wristpin/clips,than I am about piston/sleeve.

Jaime,
Sounds great! Thanks a bunch! I got worried for a sec. Everything back to normal and car been rebuilt ready for another run when I get more fuel in. Unfortunately they may not carry byrons due to the fact they want to send 8 cases instead of 4. My LHS doesn't have room for 8 cases. The other option is Odonnels 30% and Blue Thunder 30%. I may give OD a whirl.

I have run every fuel out there and always went back to Byron/Mugen fuel. IMO there is nothing better.
