Sorry Chad!
was a question mark in my mind after "no chance for a .24 to get 10 min run, even with 14T CB", but fore some reason, still unknown, didn't go on the reply text field also...
and golden i need to be, for going in A main with the experienced guys from here...
2056 is "big boy" to be relesed early 2009, right?
what pipe is that one in the .21 engine+pipe+clutch combo?...any plans for .24 combo?

Default MAIN BEARING

CHAD, Is the main bearing of 24 engine the same size as the main bearing for 21 engine? I am usualy order from Amains and I think they have bearings listed only for 21 engines.
Thanks.

Thanks!

Got to run about a half gallon thru my new motor last night..... All I can say is wow, very linear power, screaming fast on top, and still plenty of bottom end, even after geared up a tooth on the clutch. Cant wait to get some more fuel thru it and actually lean it out some more.

I got a Trinity Platinum A. Drake in a deal for a Truggy. The engine maybe has 12 tanks on it. I have no idea how to tune this engine. I'm not even sure what the base settings are. I took it out and ran it today it ran fine. I tuned it to be rich so not to mess it up. I didn't get more than to tanks through her before I discovered the front diff needs rebuilding. Brought it home took the head off and the piston is clean and shiny still. It gets stuck at TDC so I know it's a fresh engne. Just need some help and some suggestions. It sure sounds mean as hell.

Well i really like what im hearing from this engine. But, im looking between the .24 or .21 (stock, not modded versions) for my kyosho st-rr truggy, which would be better? Oh and what dynamite pipe?
*Bout to put this engine on layaway at my hobbyshop! Is this the best engine for the price?

i think so for 229 base model it just plain rips and low temps and good run times. i think i heard the dynamite 086 but the trinity big boy pipe is the one to run!! i ran a jp3 last year and ed from eb mods told me it was robbing my engine of hpa nd runtime i was getting like 8.5 - 9 minutes a tank and i thought it was fast. this year i am running the trinity pipe and i hear i will get +10 runtime and more power, cant wait. I have the .24 for truggy and the .21 for buggy.

If you run on a large open tack go for the .21 with either the 086 or the Bigboy. For tight technical track slap in a .24 for the low end grunt. Spend the extra and get the prerun version. Trust me, it is worth it's weight in gold.
