there are different combinations if you look on the Novarossi website i think its the ST which has the silicon and the tuned crankshaft

the SC which has the Silicon and the Ceramic bearing

or the SCT which has the Silicon and the Ceramic and the Tuned crankshaft.

hope this helps
Sorry to say this but...

The "S" stands for Special I believe, meaning the crankshaft is 11.9mm not 11.5mm like the CT. The Novarossi 12-SCT is the only Nova based engine which has a 11.9mm crankshaft. All the other new Nova based engines, RB R3 RC, JP Eagle, MAX XXL3 all have 11.5mm crankshafts.


Difference between the "T" and not "T"
