the rods are the same in the limited as the rest of the engines from that era nova engines . the limited rod is labeled E1 but the R7 will work


how many r7 rods do you have just lying around

i only have 4

1 LHS went out of business back in NJ gave them to me for helping them pack up

okay combo will look like this

Limited P/S
P5 crankcase
JP P5 filled crank
R7 rod
TKO Ceramics

086 or 053 pipe square header....
your Thoughts ????

i love those jp cranks , they just last for so long
86 works great with that combo , i actually have two of those combos for truggy short track . use a 9mm restrictor

just sayin' hi

what's happening Monty? I be in touch soon man

sounds good bro

Great info here. H.E.S is the only way i'll go for engine service, engines and engine help. there customer service is GREAT.

thanks bro , all i can do is try

Houston, what purpose do conical header apply to? I have a couple short and mediums sitting around. Thanks in advance, great idea having this thread by the way. So far all that have posted with questions are really into it and are not douche bags that just want to start a flame war.

Houston you said in another thread "plus 4 is whole different porting design that novarossi itself has never offered in their engine line up they have made them before though"

Which engine was this porting design used in ?

All i can say is WOW, i just read through all the post`s in this awesome thread and being a newbie was learning as i was reading, until i got a couple of pages in and now that i`m dome i`m as confused as ever, lol.
I read your post on engine tuning and i must say it was vary informing, i just have to read it over a couple of times. What would you suggest a beginner do to tune his engine to it`s right setting`s, idle, low and high speed setting`s.
I have a Nova P5X with a Sport Work`s HT with a ( what looks like ) a med curved header. What would you suggest i use and would you have any in stock for sale ?

P.S. This is a great thread, thanks for starting it.

GREAT thread!!!!
I have a hot mods plus 21-5k. what is the best pipe, header and plug for this engine? Thanks for any help you can give I know nothing

houston which motor is best for truggy nova plus 4 or p5x turbo ?

exactly

conical, parabolic would refer to circular , pretty sure
i am sure i could even ask jim and he would say i dont know

they all have different ways of recycling the back pressure , fuel recycling and effects on the scavaging . i have done quite a bit of real world testing to come to the conclusions i have and believe what i say work 99% of the time will work great

if you try what i say and come up with conflicting conclusions let me know please /
