I guess my motor having consumed right on a UK gallon (4.5L) has a little more to go before she really comes alive.
Really took on these new GO motors, along with the MG66 (think I will run 1 of these next race season
) I really can't see why people would want to pay more. the preformance to ££ factor is simply unbeatable IMO.

That is a really nice spring set up on the X-Ray. Thats what I run on my MG66 and my MMods Stage 5 5 Port all the time. It's not crazy out of the corners, but cetainly not boggy either. Just a nice hook up and go
Yep the GO motors have to be the best deal out there I reckon. Just remember to change the rod at around 9 litres after she is bedded in. Throw a new wrist pin and retaining clips in too just for peace of mind (not expensive), and she will be good for many litres of race time. Keep an eye on the bearings and replace when needed. I change my bearings every 14 litres or so, even if they feel fine. 14 litres in a race engine is plenty of work for any bearing. It's the old "stich in time saves nine" philosophy I guess.

I have a shiny new 25 from AMain. I'm fairly certain that it has the shorter needle in the carb. I know I'll have to preheat to deal with the pinch. I'm hoping to get this done without ovaling the bottom of the conrod.
I'm just hoping to get a clue from people that have solid experience with these mills.
Thanks in advance.
