All of this is fascinating stuff. It's making me want to rebuild and possibly screw up my perfectly fine novarossi P5x!

Russ, I was just kidding you. I wasn't trying to bust your chops outta spite.



If the sleeve and rod from a Go Tech works well enough in a P5x for another 4~5 gallons, why shouldn't I give it a go? I would consider upgrading my piston/sleeve/rod to the ones in the higher end version of the P5x if the bore and stroke specs are the same - I forget the model nomenclature, but it was something like a 21 plus 5k I think?

I really want to try a Go Tech engine soon, but until my P5x gives out, I really don't have a good excuse to spend the money! Wife would be pissed!
