Oh, and BTW, I won the AMain by a full lap

Great engine

Burt,

Your truggy looked great this weekend with the B5 in it. I think I am slowly converting everyone over to the Werks side of things.

Good job once again this weekend.

Marcus

Thanks Marcus,

I absolutly love the B5 and my Truggy loves it also. Thank you for turning me on to the Werks engine(s) ... Your B6 looked outstanding. Great job on your win.

Your a great driver and representative of Werks.

Thanks again

Default Werks B5 or B6???

I see this engines. B5 and B6, anda i have dudes about, what engine buy.

I need a engine with torque for my short and technical track, and velocity for the long lines. Please recomend me a engine.

i think the B6 is more fast, but less torque?? is true??

also i need a pipe, i see the dynamite pipes low, mid, and top, for this engine en general i need pipe with what conditions.

thanks for your answer

If you driving a Buggy a B6 with 2057 will be just fine, power on the ground easy to drive. If you drive a Truggy, B5 with 2013 will work. You always can get both pipes and switch them if you need to according to the track. Also read both thread B5 and B6 so you can learn a little more about this mills, there is alot of info.

thnaks for your answer.

When you say, easy to drive, is because the botton end the B6 is lower that the B5???

i like a engine with botton end (60%) en Top end (40%), a engine with torque for the jumps.

I have a Losi 8ight 2.0, with a toro nero.

About the pipe, i dont have problem with the fuel comsuption, i like the engine run well, later see the fuel comsuption.

you have the link about B6 engine??

If you like a lot of power overall (which it sounds like you do from your post above) then you cant go wrong with the B5. The B6 will have a smoother, less aggressive bottom end which some people prefer in buggy but again it is completely up to the drivers preference.

Regards,

Ron

Hey cotto68, in the US you can get these from either A-Main or Tower Hobbies.

Regards,

Ron

Ron or anybody has the knowledge,

I just ordered my 2nd B5 today. I used 30% on the first motor, but will 20% give me better engine life? I do live in Colorado and most guys use 30. Just wondering your opinion?
