The New Werks B5 .21 Racing Engine
#8236
Like Ron mentioned, check out the first post.
Something I experienced and it may not apply to all is that my engine was easier to tune and runs better with the Byrons 3000 9% oil and a Werks #5 plug. You can break it in with the 11% oil, but after break in, if you are finding that it may be a little finicky, try 9% oil.
Like I said, may not apply to all, but just found 9% to run a little cleaner.

i still preheat the block on my B5's even after being fully broken in(for just a bit with the piston at BDC). makes life easier on all the moving components and takes no time....easier on the box/wheel as well). anyway....i've got many gallons thru all my B5's(in an 8T 2.0, as well) with no issues. the B5 is a fantastic engine.......just remember to drag the piston to BDC every time you stop the engine for awhile..........and, i use ARO when it sits, as well.......all good/cheap insurance..............try the DYNAMITE LIPO glow starter, as well........packs a punch to the plug.
