Yea, I would do that also, but my WS7 I quit running when I was at a race, my C6 was just getting broke in, and did'nt have time to do the swap, so just left it, it still needs more time for break in, I had maybe 3, 500cc bottles of fuel thru it when I had no choice, I needed an engine quick, I was racing the Nitro X championship in Arizona.

sounds good, are you racing on large track? What are you running the K9 in? Buggy? Truggy?

Killer 9 is a great engine for the price! I have almost 2 gallons on mine including the break-in (gallon). Engine is still super tight that you struggle to turn the flywheel over when mounted in my truggy.
My setup is:
7mm insert
2045/192mm pipe/header
Byron %25 Pro
(ditch the 8mm insert it comes with for a 7mm, BIG difference in runtime!!)
Last week I was able to get almost 10 mins on a pit.
I ran a 20 min. Main on one stop and ran out of gas after I crossed the finish line for my last lap. Luckily I had a nice lead on third to hang on to my 2nd place finish. The engine was cold, I don't know what the actual temp was but I would guess about 190'.
I will definately buy another one when this one dies.

I have a shark engine that I am going to break in for a friend of mine as we speak. They are extremely limited in that US is only getting 100 out of 400 in the world. It should be good the sleeve is cut like swiss cheese and the crank appears to weighted from the illustration included with the engine. I may be able to open it up for pics, I will ask my buddy if he minds. It does come with the better carb with the idle screw behind the carb.
Try a Killer 9, it is a runner. Smooth and great on mileage with 7mm insert.

The last year C6 or the new B9 will make you very happy. Top it with a 2045/192 pipe/header combo. Also I have yet to break in the Killer 9 but from the specs it should be a sleeper also.
