The New Werks B6 .21 Buggy Racing Engine!

Ron is 100% correct on the front bearing issue. but the bearing was leaking exsessivley in one spot and it looked like the seal was damaged in the same spot. I am going to run the engine prior to replacing the bearing and see when it is doing. if I can not get it to run "correctly" I will replace it and see what happends.

Ron, last weekend I had a radio issue and my B6 went wide open on the box. As expected it blew up and when I disasembled it I found only the Rod and Piston broke. My question is where can I get a rod from since AMain has them on backorder with no date. I figured I would ask since your so go about responding :-)
Thanks....

I hope nobody took my earlier post about my leaky front bearing as a negative toward Werks engines. It was intended as an informative post about a tuning issue. The tracks we run at here in Nevada are notorious for killing bearings in general and have taken out many a front bearing.
It's just interesting that when I lost a front bearing on my OS Speed last year, you could see it leaking pretty much before it got impossible to tune. With the Werks, it isnt leaking much, but I could almost breathe through it when I was checking it.

There is a few different methods, Ron's method is the way to go in the Werks engines, due to the tolerance of the piston and sleeve. Do the brake in according first page and you'll be fine. At the half gallon mark you should be hitting the track strong and fast.

Hey guys I was looking through my distributors webiste and seen they now offer two versions of the B5 and B6. They have the standard in each and I now see a "Pro" version. What is the difference? Sorry if this had already been discussed.
Thanks
Thanks
