Barring that how are the latest Go motors holding up? I always liked them, but I've been out of cars for a few years and have not been keeping up.
I recently traded for a low hours Kyosho GT II and would like to put this old 7 port on it, or maybe just buy a new engine if the Go's are still good engines.
Thanks in advance for any and all help, opinions, etc.
Yes GX1 7 port piston sleeve will work but will need the new GX1 (Gen 5.5) crank also, or can realy bring it to life buy putting a GX11 crank in it.... with the price to do that I'd buy a new engine

edit: browsing around I found the following.
GX Series and GXII-5RHO motors fitted with 2 needle carbutettor
GXII-5RHO motors post Nov 2011 fitted with the 3 needle Gen 6 carburettor
So I guess the Amain engines are older stock.
Yes it is the USA previous distributers old stock
I wish Amain would stop calling it GO Tech, it's GO ENGINES now new line and is far superior to the old gen 4 and older engines from when was GO Tech.
