If you use it in the Mamba X1, you have to grind a little to make it fit with the piston top.
The Novarossie R7 will also fit.

Axe conrods are just to weak.

The NEW ROD IS NOT WEAK the Old Rod was the one that had all the problems the New Rod is just as good as the R7 i have run them both and the NEW Rod will Last just as long. Have Any of you TRYED the New Rod if you have not got an Axe Rossi motor in the Last 6 months you have not had the NEW Rod so how can you say its Weak.
