I saw the broken pistons on stock ones, I would say none made it to 5 gallons. I used to sell Go and my son was factory sponsored, we know how to tune. I believe part of the problem was the loose fit of the wrist pin in the piston. I had talked with Simon from Go about this on all the Go engines a couple years ago. I think the fit may be better on newer engines. I can understand you may be sponsored Magpie and should not say bad things about an engine you run.
Herrsavage, I think the quality of the A352 is worth the extra cost, having ran both.
