Default OS V SPEC SPEED WORLD EDITION FOR SALEI

I am selling my world edition v spec for one reason, having some tuning issues with it. This engine has 2.5 gallons through it and runs well but has caused me to flame out at a couple of races for some unknown reason. It was broken in correctly and It has always been preheated prior to every start up! Is has new o rings, new rod, new inner and outer bearings, and a new p3 plug. The crank pin checked out good and the engine has very good compression. Engine has run consistently at 210-220, never more! It breaks my heart to sell this engine because when it is on I don't think a better engine exist but I don't trust it so it's gotta go. To clarify, this engine runs, it has all the new parts listed above in it, it includes the old rod that is is great shape but replaced it anyways, has 2.5 gallons through it, broken in properly, always preheated before start up, good compression, and has a tuning issue on the bottom end that I can't figure out that has caused me to loose faith in it. Engine is sold as is. Great opportunity for someone to pick up a great engine with a lot of good parts in it. If you have more time than I do I'm sure the problem could be tracked down but I don't. I'm going to set price at $140 free shipping which I feel is fair but please feel free to make reasonable offers. The crank is worth more than half that! comes with 6, 6.5, and 7 inserts also

$175 is a steal for this engine. If I didn't have 3 that I never get to use I'd pick it up too.

I can vouch for Brian. Everything he has posted is the truth as we pit together and I have seen what he has described first hand.

Man, you should've had Brandon take a look at it on Sat. He was over in McGinty's pit putting some good joo-joo on his EBMods JS....had that thing whipped into shape in no time. I bet he could've figured out the problem, or at least he may have been willing to take it with him and work on it when he had some time.

If the case isn't cracked, it's gotta be something simple...tune, or air leak. The Speed that I bought used had about 2 gallons on it...I put in a new rod, bearings, sealed it up, so it's bacially in the same condition yours is. It's been running like a champ. Sure is a waste to sell your motor for cheap like that....
