Also from going through the thread it seems that the Orion 2013 is best all around pipe to run with this. Is that correct?
One final question. I think I may be building a Truggy in the future as well, is this a competitive Truggy motor? I figure it would be way simpler if I could run the same motor in both rigs so I can become a real expert on it.
Thanks for any advice!
Hello Grimlock, A-main just ran out of stock last week. We currently have a shipment with UPS that will be here in 4-5 days. In the interim you can also get one at RC Planet at this link:

these engines also have the 2010 alloy carb on them. As far as the pipe is concerned you will want to go with the 2013 pipe set, just make sure that it is the 2010 spec which has the braced stinger and the thicker pipe material. Lastly as far a pushing around a truggy with the B5, no problem at all!
Regards,
Ron
