I just got a rrr evo with a rb engine, its a v12 .12 is it a pretty good engine and can I still get parts for it?

Just bought myself a RB T9. Cant wait to run it in and get some track time.

RB engines are very popular at my local race track and a lot of people are currently running the R3 and will all probably change to the T9 or T9 RC shortly.

Does anyone know the sizes of the front and rear bearing for the RB R3 motor?

7.17fr
11.5 rear
I think.

how many people are running the T9RC? how does the speed of this motor compare to others in its class?

Thanks.

*How about the TJ9 too! Anyone using it?

well the rc should be equal in power with the others, in europe they are used very much, will be telling you more about the engine once it comes down the track hopefully by the end of summer

The RBM3 is a missle.

what break-in method is suited for RB engines?
planning of getting the T9 or the RC version...

I use Cyruls WOT method......works like a charm!!

what temp is it running on the first 3 tanks?

my worry of this method is that while its WOT, its sooo rich that the engine head is not warm enough...

i'll adjust the HSN so that during WOT, the temp is about 150F...

I just ordered a Junior 9, should be here either monday or tuesday. I've had the early S3 which was great

Is there still a RB forums or is it no longer there?

Have run RB's for 8 years now sounds like are run too lean on bottom to me. I took along time figuring out RB likes a rich low needle and lean the top to tune I hardly ever touch my low end on RB's. I also found no matter which RB you run 086 is the pipe of choice with me not the most fuel efficient but easiest to tune and best power.

Anyone know which manufacturer makes the new Killer 9 engine?

Looking at the bore/stroke it is no NR model. Also 16.20 x 17.00 does make 3.504cc which is not alowed. But 16.20 x 16.90 is the same as the Sirio CL7B engine which is possible because the Xenon series were also made by Sirio.
