On other hand, I will not sugest to compare team engines to regular poduction engines. Ths is why they are team egines-drivers will show you how fast they are, but pretty often it is driver, not an engine.

A top of the line Max today is not much difference to a team Nova. We can buy the horsepower. Making use of it is a different thing!

Serpent says their MCP engines run better in the long race configuration, that they handle the heat better, blah, blah ,blah.
What temperature is too hot for these?
I'm getting ready to race in sunny Florida and don't want to burn it up.

can you explain me better what you have "discovered"?
do u say that microcast piston and classic sleeve suffer the hot temperatures less ..... or are more powerful in high temperature...???
What is the best piston+ sleeve couple for this hot summer???

Guess what guys... Nova is reworking the AAC engine now. The 8 ports is not working for them. They are going to switch the 421 back to ABC in the mean time!

One more time-expirience of trials and mistakes. They didn't learn it from 20 years ago.

Last weekend, like I said, on about the 10th tank, in near 90 deg F, air temp, it was running 260. Blowing good smoke, and starting to get fast.
About right?

You are right.
I have noticed the same thing
But
I have one fear:
Take care, the next time about the compression ... when it is cold.
I think...your engine started to wear.....
That is the principal reason of the easy restart with hot....
