By the data, this engine should be similar to the N12LL3. I see a large exhaust port in the pictures, but other wise it looks like any other NR.
Is it special? If so, in which way and is it worth to get one?
Thanks buddy.
Hi Stefan. The engine is similar to the N12LL3, in fact the crankshafts are interchangeable. The main difference is the piston. It is hemispherical and super lightweight. They say it is Microcast, but the bottom has been milled so you can not see the casting marks like in other MCP engines. The USA version comes with a turbo scoop already in the crank (not EFRA legal). The engine is a screamer. It out accelerates the LL3. The exhaust port is also better in the +3. Overall I think this is a great engine from Novarossi.
