Hey houston i plan on buying a p5xlt i see you carry them and i was wondering what your tune service for $40 is that a small mod. Im looking to get some runtime. I did some reading and see people get some 8 minutes and above. I get 8 minutes out of .28 so im sure this 21 will be an improvment. This is for a truggy I run a hard packed clay track kinda smooth with fluff on top. I will proabably get this with in a month when i can break it in ,in proper temps easier. I only have the one jp1 pipe so i would like to keep cost down from what i read i need to get a pipe but i can use my header form the jp. If this is better to talk in pm then just send one. Thanks Rob.

houston tuned is a modification service , includes work on the piston,sleeve and crank , silicone filling is also highly recommended and i do offer a bench break in service to help you with the "fun" task of breaking engines in

just checkout all the services offered on www.houstonsengineservice.com and if you got any questions just ask , i would recommend the 2096ss pipe for a great balanced feel between power/runtime , the 9886 works great if you dont care too much about driveability as it has a violent powerband effect and crazy top speed

I love power but i think i want it controlled power i also love big blocks but sometime i dont have pit man that stay when neededmy track is 160 by 90 at i think so it might be a medium size. how much is shipping to 60051 cause im trying to get out the door for 300 right now this will be a big upgrade compared to what i have ran in the sig for price wise. So in other words it will be my test engine i kinda wanna step it up this year cause i did great last year for my first year racinging. Just not to sure if i want a 21 or a 25 but i do want to try a 21 out abd see how the diff from a 28

For anyone that is thinking of getting a motor from Monty, DON'T hesitate. He offers great advice and doesn't push you toward a product, gives you the info to make an educated decision based on the information you give him. The price is comparative with anywhere else, but you get his valuable experience. The break in service is a bargain in my book. Thank you Monty!

p5xlt, silicone filling and bench break in , perrrfect , recdommend getting the 2096ss at some point though

thanks a bunch Carl!!

Will taht what ill do in about a month sound good saved your web site in the fav. You do a full break in so i will just have to tune it correct.

bench break in is 30$ which gets you past all the heat cycles and stuff , you get the engine , you can start running it but DO NOT PUT FULL RACE TUNE ON THE ENGINE until after 1000-1500cc of fuel , keep temps between 190-210 during this period and i would strongly recommend byrons gen2 race 3000 blend for final break in as it has a fair amount of castor oil in the mix for break in 30/11 blend . if you use some mostly synthetic fuels it would be a very good idea to add some lube booster or benol or klotz castor oil to the mix , at least 2 oz per gallon as much as 4 oz

full break ins are a lil more and only done on special request at my discretion

Ok will i have to get some bryon fuel i wonder where they have that out here we have odennels and some other stuff not to sore what but it not bryons. i do use 30 % speed blend from od seem to be the best stuff out here in IL> The hobbico after run oil will not work for a filled crank right i have to buy some other kinda also there from what i read somewhere. And for the temp that why im gonna wait till it just a little nicer out how.

do not use hobbico after run oil with filled cranks , you might as well go buy a bottle of marvels mystery oil anyway , same stuff

castor oil makes great after run oil , specifically byrons lube booster or u can use novarossi 1m2 or rbmods aro

odonnell is good fuel but please add castor oil for break in

ok great i printed it all out and saved it in my rc folder so i be get this in a month times or sonner just want to get all the stuff down that i need. I like to know what i buy before i buy it. i been buying up rc stuff so i dont run out of thing this some like tires and so this is now the last thing im waiting to get. Cant wait to try them out and thanks for your time too. This is one of the track i will be running on out of the 4 i go to this is the primary track. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ymr8XIIJ2Y now this is not me or the car it just a video i found on you tube some guy posted.

Monty is the Hudy after run oil ok with silcon filled cranks?

Good question , i will research that

Cant find any descript info that says it is or isnt , hmmmm

Monty, how would an old mugen 1005 pipe work on a p5xlt or an x7 extreme? What type of powerband can I expect for both engines?
