I had some tuning isses that I didnt have the patience to work through (bad mental state, state series going on, being an idiot), and sold it...

It was such a strong motor for the entire 2 hours, and was pitting at 225, and came off at 240 (bone dry tank) and the end.
HAHAHAHA you make more come backs then Rocky!

great to hear it cant wait for the next two hour or longer race.

Well, the outdoor season is over here so i have started to clean everything up including my GO .21 5P. Its on my work bench in parts and i think everything looks ok, i did notice a few races back there have been alot of dirt build up at the front of the engine which i assume is a leaking front bearing ?

Now, the question is, is it worth it to replace both bearings, o-rings and maybe even piston, sleve and connecting rod or should i just get a new engine for the next season ?

How about just getting the sleve pinched ? Ive been looking around on prices for parts, and if i replace things to get my engine back to " new " its almost as much as buying a completely new engine, so whats your opinion ?

When its time for a rebuild I just buy a new engine........When I get more cash and get bored I will rebuild the old engine and use it for a back up

Ok guys I need a little help here. I am looking into to Go Tech 7port motor and want some feedback on it. Once modified will it have close if not more power then my modded RB WS7II? I know that I am probably going to get a bias answer on this but I would really appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks

I have a nice Go Tech 7 port for sale in the for sale forum. I put a Novarossi carb and King Headz cooling head on it.

3/4 gallon and as you who have them know, it's not broken in yet.

Also available with a 053 Werks pipe in good condition.

PM me for pictures. Chad

Swede how many gallons have you run thru the engine, If the compression is still good I would just throw some fresh ceramic bearings in it. If it has had a few gallons thru it, I would say pick up a spare piston and sleeve to use as a replacement halfway thru next season.

Black the Go enginge will perform better than the RB

+1, the 7 port modded is very responsive on the bottom but still smooth, and with the 053 or a OS pipe they will hit solid on the mid to top, i have always ran the GO 5 in buggy, but the 7 has plenty for truggy as well, so if it moves those well it's a very solid buggy motor for sure, when you go to the smaller insert on the carb your runtime will go up as well with out noticing a loss is power, very good mills.

I would say 5 gallons maybe, and the compression, well, its not like when it was new, but it still idles and runs good, so i guess its not to bad, but its pretty easy to turn the flywheel over, so, i dont know.

I was thinking about getting the turbo button for it, but i dont know if its worth it ? and where do they have parts in stock for the GO ? the places i have looked is all out of stock

what do you have? 5 or 7 port. A Main has P/S/R sets for the 7 ports but not the 5 if all you need is a rod i have a new on in the bag.
