NOVAROSSI 28-3 PS( PS started giving me lots of headache, changed to rotostart than finally starter box. In the beginning i didnt like it, but now work well)
NOVAROSSI BONITO 7XLB(NIB, havent tried it yet)
ULTIMATE M814(Nova based, got it in a lot used, positively surprised, pretty fast)
Novarossi 3 port PS(had been using it for 5 years and was the only engine I had on .21 size and was great, but finally it gave up and broke the rod. Can't justify to pay a fortune for a new piston/sleeve/rod since i can put a bit more and get a better engine)
I use mainly Kyosho MP9 and MP 7.5 based cars, which the majority have been converted to rally game/gt car. Lot of bashing in empty lots and also local onroad track but no serious racing.
Since the Novarossi situation seems complicated, I would like to buy a few engines while they are still available. With the ones I have and my comments what would you recommend? I am in Europe and will buy from italian shops, so the prices are reasonable.
Given the above, what would be the recommendations?
I'm not sure what you're asking? Novarossi engines are basically gone from US sources and even on eBay; your choices are limited to what your Italian shop has on hand. If you're bashing in a parking lot, does it really matter to have the most powerful engine? Pick one that's available and cheap, and put your $$$$ into extra fuel and tires.
