I just started the break in process with my new M7T this past weekend. I am trying to get it finished before the Winter Nats in Florida.
When I received the engine I took it totally apart and looked everything over to insure all internal parts were perfect, no burrs or any rust and etc commonly found in some other world renown engines. I was very impressed with the total engine. It is a nice piece and all of the machinery work is clean and looks perfect. New owners of this engine will be very proud of their purchase.
The external looks of the engine is also impressive. At the track the engine turned a lot of heads and questions about the engine showed great interest by other racers.
The sleeve and crank have obviously been worked on and of course the balance between the two is what makes the engines rpm and powerful on the low and high ends.
The first tank of gas proved the normal results. If you follow engines temps as you break in an engine, you will notice that M7T follows the normal patterns. I just can't wait to get to the part where I can start with the race tune!
The M7T early into the break in with rich setting shows a lot of life!!! So I understand what some of you have mentioned in the comments above. I never owned a Mario Rossi race tuned engine so this should be a fun experience.
For those of you that live in the USA you will see Diatta Collymore (factory Driver) with his Reds Racing Engine M3T at the Florida Winter Nationals. Diatta is also my sponsored driver for GQ Racing Tires. Had to get that plug in!!!
In addition to Diatta, Billy Bowerman will be the factory driver for the .21 M7T Reds Racing Engine. Billy's contract is being completed now as I speak and Billy will be able to show the power of this engine to 1:8th on road drivers at the Winter Nats. Billy will also be using the .12 M3T. Another plug coming. Billy is also another of my sponsored drivers for GQ Racing Tires.
Alex, the importer/distributor for Reds Racing Engines-USA, has been making great gains with the Reds engine in the off road competitive field. As we gain more drivers for the on road I am sure these engines will have some amazing results to report in the near future. GQ America (TMA Marketing) is a new dealer for Reds Racing Engines and I will be happy to help interested racers in trying this new engine for their 2012 racing campaign.
Looking forward to 2012 and hoping the weather will be great in Fort Myers for the Nats.
Have Fun!
