You'll be very pleased with it!

Yes i did! He has all the Nova pipes and headers and you can choose if you want a coated one or the stock finish. I chose the coated because they clean very easily. Give Mark a call, hes extremely knowledgeable and will answer any questions you may have. He is the only person i trust when it comes to my motors.

Whats up Mark, and the rest of the Powerhouse fan club lol you too BOB. Been a while since i have posted but the Nova is still ripping Mark, havent ran much the past month, have been sick Dr thought it was kidney stones cause it hurt like a SOB but they couldnt see any on the scan so now they are treating it like Gall Bladder Cancer. I have to have some tests run next Wednesday to know for sure. But who cares as long as that Nova and Losi are going around the track who cares about illnesses . Keep up the great work, didnt forget about the things you do for me, just have been offline for a while.
Take care buddy

Glad the engine is still treating you well. Hope whatever it is you have going on ends well. Keep me posted and let me know if you need anything else. Thanks Joe!

They run very close to each other in stock trim if both engines are setup and tuned decent so in a perfect world where both engines are running and setup very similarly, in order for a P5 to walk away from a B5, it will need some help and same holds true for the other engine. It will all depend on car setup, pipe selection, tune etc. Both engines can look great or look like ass depending on who is doing what with them.

Thought I'd stop by and give a thumbs up for the cold fusion. I used to run byrons gen2 25%. But, Bob W. convinced me to give cf a try. Used up my first gallon and nothing but thumbs up. Seems I have gained run-time and lowered head temps.

Howdy all. It's been awhile. School is kickin my butt. . MArk I didn't forget about you bro, just been busy at home. Hope the everyone had a good season. Joe get well soon. We have our last points series at Hobby Hut starting this week. Hoping to end the season with a bang.

Frank when you sending Mark that new Speed you got. I know it's heading to him soon . And Mark before I forget, I'm working on a sponsorship with Radical engines. If all goes well there will be some heading your way. Take care everyone.

And Mark the P5, N21, Toro, and the 528 you did for me in January are still running strong. Plenty of compression in all 4. Will be inspecting them soon before winter storage.

I think I am going to run it stock for a little bit and see what it can do.

Hi PowerhouseRCperformance,

I have a question,when a sleeve gets modified,ported,and cut does the integrity of it deminish.
Does it still have the solid foundation it once was.

I'm just asking,because someone thinks once an engine is modified,it loses it's reliability.And all I can think of is that for it not to be reliable,is that the sleeve has been structually weekend.What are your thoughts...

I have run Marks engines for well over a year and I can tell you they are just as reliable as the stock versions. I have never had a sleeve break or crack or crank issue. So in my experience the way Mark mods them the integrity is still there. I cant speak for all engine modders just the ones I have used.
