So do you want all engines to have

"Houston tuned"
"Silicone filled cranks"
17011 front bearings (recommended)
"R2R" ?

Let me know soon so I can get goin on them

Pipes?
2084ss/41021 for truggy
9901ss/41021 for buggy

Since the track is gonna be hard and grippy you may even run the 2084ss on both cars or possibly 9853ss
RB Five,

I live in Kuwait but that's just my US shipping address, Aramex shipping Co, i get stuff shipped to them and they ship to Kuwait, way cheaper than shipping directly to Kuwait.

Monty,

all engines as you mentioned, H.E.S tuned, filled cranks, dont they come with 17011?? 2010 Plus 4 Team edition??
about the break-in service, i want mine to be R2R but ill have to check with the guys about their engines.
you didnt tell me how many liters you run them?? on track or only bench??

about the pipes, i'm not really sure as you know i always run the 3005 on my P5 and plus 4 on buggy and 2013 on truggy.

what's the difference in performance between the 9901 and 2084?? low-end, top-end??

cheers Monty

Ali

What are the differences between the "J" shaped headers and the "C" shaped headers?

You mean headers suchas 41005 ,41001 incomparison to 41021 and like round headers ?


More low end torque from 41021 or ) round headers , nice free reving engine that is fairly responsiveto throttle input .

The 41005 , 41001 or ] double bend headers tend to smooth low end throttle response a bit but IMO create a more smooth climb to the peak rpm . Feels like they also create more rpm in most cases

Ali , I run 1/2 gallon of byrons 30/11 race 3000 through the engines and I do it in an actual car , not a big fan of break in benches

9901 and 2084 are two totally different pipes , totally

I personally don't really like 9853 or 2084 in buggy , too much low end torque , I didn't use to like 9901 either but found it to be a bada$$ buggy pipe when used in conjuction with some other stuff . In your case , running on a super grooved track , u might be able to utilize a little extra torque down there .

Monty oh Monty what a great night of racing H.S.E Tuend plus 4c Tq's and wins at Harc Race in Alvin Tx. Monty the motor was super strong the track i was only able to make about 6 mins per tank due to the size of the track 150 x 125 it was a wide open track other then the corners and while the cars were in the air.
