I'm thinking of getting a GRP .21 but I'm concerned about these "mystery flame outs". Sorry if you're sick of hearing the term, but I am not made of money and I don't want to stop using one engine because it doesn't tune properly(Go) and buy an engine that doesn't stay running(GRP).


I have a feeling it's extremely over-exaggerated, seeing as how 90% of the people I've seen claiming GRPs flame out have O.S. V-Specs, etc. in their signature.


I have a JP-3 pipe and a buttload of P3 plugs that I'd love to use on my new engine. My thoughts are now with

1. GRP .21
2. O.S. V-Spec, I'll replace the bearing with a ceramic before it sees a drop of fuel.
3. Trinity Ex-Tech.
(No particular order)

With the GRP and O.S. I can still use my pipe and plugs, but the Trinity doesn't like Jammin' pipes or P3 plugs. To its advantage, I have yet to see anything but rave reviews for the Trinity.

Thoughts are appreciated. I'll be ordering on Friday.
