I know this is hard without physically inspecting the engine but im Looking for a diagnosis on the condition and life left in my engine.

I broke the engine in to the best of my limited ability(only my 3rd engine.) using the heat cycle method and basically for the first 4 ltrs a heat gun was used before starting and the engine was never started cold. Its sitting at 2 1/2 gallons now, it has almost no mechanical pinch with the plug out... there is a slight resistance. With the plug in the engine has compression and is hard to turn over. The engine still runs really well, both high and low end are still there. And it holds a tune perfectly and the temp never gets out of control.

So im worried about it having almost no pinch with the plug out, but it still runs very well? How much life is left in the engine?

And is it worth getting it modded, im tempted after seeing this thread: http://www.rctech.net/forum/nitro-of...ore-after.html.

Anyways cheers for any advice.
