Ran Cold Fusion fuel for the first time this weekend and came away very impressed. My Argus A52 loved it. I will definetly be running this fuel this year! Thanks Torain4000 for the sale.

Looking good Mark. Excited to see how it runs in a few weeks.

I still have a few Toro Nero Teams left on special if anyone is interested. I will also be running a preseason special on the X7's when they arrive next week. Like the X3, I would like to get a few out there to see what people think of them with my work on them. Let me know if anyone wants to give the new X7 a go. Thanks for everyone's continued support!

Are you FCuddy's buddy that picked up the 28-7 with the full race porting? I am guessing so since you quoted Bob's post but I have recently sent out a few of those so I just want to be sure who I am talking with. Glad you like it!! I said it would be strong . Just figure out how to harness it ie: clutching, gearing etc. Think outside the box on this one and you will be fine. I ran the .28's in truggies for years and they are more than doable, just have to gear them up and clutch them down to get them to work well. Alot of people struggle when they leave stock gearing and clutching in the vehicle and upgrade from a stock or modified .21 to a moddified .28. Keep us posted on how you do with it and thanks again for your business!!

Mark, Dturbocivic is the one that bought that 28-7. He was looking for some juice and he got it!

Great to hear he got what he asked for and then some! Keep us posted on how he does or he can always do it himself and also keep us posted on how the Plus28-3 and your Nitrotec .21 does when you get it back. Thanks again for your support brother. Semper Fi!

I am running a blowout special on the TQ501T engine. I have 2 left and I am letting them go at cost to make room for more engines. I have an engine and I have an engine/pipe combo. They both will come with the updated carb throat to keep the engine from vapor locking. Someone at the factory thought a steel throated carb body was a good idea so they have all been replaced with the composite throat. They are both in the sealed box and I will also do a dealer cost special on the race porting if you would like to do that as well. PM me if you are interested in one of these engines!! Thanks everyone for your continued support!!

Default GRP Tune line

Hi mark. I've got a Tune line with maybe 41/2 gals closer to 5 on it and I found it wanting to start backwards and I'll have to bump it a couple of times to change its direction. But lately I have notice a leak or something it looks like its coming from the head gasket but the head bolts are all tight. when this engine is running its really fast and some real good punch with some good run times so what ever it is its not stealing from the fuel to bad. I was reading your thread and noticed you messed with the GRP when they were in production so I figure I ask you about the GRP's.........Thank you.......Bill

Will do Mark! The Hobby Hut is building a sick new layout as we speak. Should be done in a few days. I am going to run the wheels off my cars once they open up again. Can't wait to see the modified Nitrotec rip.

The only things I can think of at the moment without see it in person is the flashpoint might be borderline low or the compression border line high which would cause it to pre-ignite and run in reverse rotation. Is the shimming stock? What temp range plug are you using? How old is the rod? May have enough play where it will cause the piston to travel higher in the bore and create a high compression situation and that could contribute to the problem. There could be other causes but those are the ones I would start with.

I have a brand new in the box Bonito that needs a home. I picked it up to degree it in and get some specs on it. I am offering it a price you won't be able to refuse so PM for details. First come first serve!!

Default Modded Nitrotec

The other day I shipped a Nitrotec to Mark for a pinch, a rod and a mod. I just received the parts back today and all I can say is, I can't wait to get some nitro running through it! He modded and filled the crank, worked some magic on the sleeve and cleaned it all up. Along with the TKO ceramics he sold me, this engine is mint for the upcoming season! On top of it all, between me shipping the parts, the work being done, and the return shipping not more than nine days passed. It's almost unbelievable, my hat is off to you Mark! I will update performance ASAP.
