Aaron, How long have your draked edition engines been lasting. Mine only lasted 1.5 gallons and I think that is a short life for a engine. All of my previous engines have lasted until around 4-5 gallons. Just curious how yours have lasted. It was never run too hot and always with a clean air filter.

Aaron-What are your thoughts on the original Drake& Draked edition trinity .12? (The most recent one prior to the "platinum editions")

rgb - I've had some of the standard Drake Edition motors expire kinda quickly compared to some of the italian motors. I can usually get about 2-3 gallons through them before they start to run low on compression.
Punched - They're the same engine. The "Draked" edition engines are blue-printed, ported, sealed, and checked by Adam in his garage...I'm not kidding! In my opinion, they're worth the extra money.

I haven't had the chance to run one of the Platinum engines yet, especially the production engines. I know what they are and what to expect from them though.

Aaron-It's mac, fyi. I was talking about the original draked series (black cooling head). Was that the same one you were talking about in your reply?

No...the standard Drake Edition engines are made by Toki's. The Platinum Edition engines are italian, but not Sirio.
