felt bad for the guy - he is a young racer early 20's trying to have fun and a real good kid, helps and volunteers at the track.

So a buddy and I get to brain storming, I had P5XLT parts in the box, as i was still waiting for new bearings...

So we took the Crank, new PSR, Turbo headbutton and backing plate from my P5 and Slapped them in his P3XS! Ran in the motor installed in the car on the starter box for two tanks and finished it on the track (no one else was running, so we took a sunday drive, lol).

Needless to say, after we took it apart, inspected it, sealed and reassembled, he has himself a stealth little P5XLT. He is so happy and you can tell he is glad to be up and running again.

- New Plug and Button Head O-ring were installed after the breakin.

Pics to come...
