If it spins too easily then the bore needs to be cleaned, replace the O-ring, and put some type of lubricant on it like Green Slime. I just replaced my O-rings for the same reason.

Salteen thanks for getting your shop to carry the engines. First the O-ring is in the right spot. If the needle turns easy the o-ring could be bad but the o-ring looks fine in the picture. If you pressure test the carb and there arn't any air bubbles coming out of the HSN then you should be fine, but since you have it out i would also reccomend using a grease like Satoch said.

Rltanner, you will have to send the coupon to me it will not be accepted by any dealers.

I took the TQ and A main win tonight, running the 7 port, Russell, the 2047 ROCKS, can't wait to run it on the 3 port. Jason, i know man just messin with ya, i have been looking at alot of things on dyno's i'm not sure how they compare to chassis dyno's but i know doing numerous pulls on a motor is hard on them, thats why i said a new motor, i would like to have a pull done on the 3 5 and 7 ports, just not sure where to get a good reading from, EB offers a pull for $100 with a few differnt pipes, and he doesnt open them up when there from someone else. Russell, give me a shout when you can bud.

Ya the track had a new layout for our TN state indoor championships on the 29th of this month, i was still able to post a 13.5 fast time, so even with the new lay out it was very fast, motor and pipe were flawless.

PTM 08 GO 7 port
GO 2047 pipe long header
OS P6
Rocket Science 30%
NR 7 MM carb insert

What would be the best pipe for the 5 port for high bite indoor racing on a Losi 8ight?

Thanks.

On high bite indoor you may want to try the 053, the engine will have tons of bottom so if you can get traction you should be able to pull out of the corners very fast.

had a friend of mine racing with his GOTech 5port against some of the best engines on the market as well as expensive, and it sure is money well spent considering the price and quality and performance overall.
