hopefully Mark can shed some light on it for you

The GX Range Gen 5.5 had a few people input into the design including Go Engine , Simon Yii , MassiveMods and some Key suggestions from associated parties. . My input was mainly carb , crank , and rod related . The Carbs will now have new Nitrile seals and double sealed HSN which will eliminate previous problems. The crank and rod tolerances have been changed over that last 3 months to handle the power these things put out.

The MG 66 Gen 6 shares a lot of the refinements as id put these into place before they made my engine. Some of them the Go Factory included for me out of their own generosity. The MG66 however has a new sleeve design and port timing as well as a differnt crank balance. This is an exciting engine as its the first that Go Have made as a Factory Modified engine. The Modifications have come from my Research and Development over the last 12 months. The MG66 will include a Spare Rod , Rear Bearing and Carb Restricctor Kit.

Whichever engine you choose to run you will be very pleased with its performance

some pics below enjoy

Now avail for international release Monday

Cheers MM

No confusion there. Just some fraudulent seller on E-Bay talking bullsh-t. There have been no factory modified Go's until now. Straight up and simple

Mark, the cuts on the MG66 sleeve look really clean. It's amazing the quality you can achieve with modern tooling.

MassiveMods, is the MG66 going to be sold exclusively by your channel only? Or, are they going to be released in other countries as well?

I'll be there bro. I'm hanging out after missing the points meeting at ARCCC last weekend, and mid week on-road as well.
I still have a few days of my leave left to go before it's back to the workplace , so the buggy will be getting the big once over ready for Sunday. You picking up Benny B as usual ?
