Christmas for JOE!!!

[alfred e numan]

happy to see you are building your own engines! Whats cool bout knowing how to do this - It makes a person want to see just how hard the engines can be flogged- I have ran 2 bolts so hard that the rear part of the body is all warped up from the heat! No, they are not lean either, just wfo most of the time- on road that is---- I am not abuseing the powerplants- Its just when you do your own builds-- If you keep your eyes peeled at assorted web sites, you can get a cy f 270 4 bolt bottom ens with bearings -seals-45 bucks- f 270 pull off top ends- 35 bucks. I have 4 of these. just need a crank on sale- bolts- clutch assembly- then you are good to go-- on the cheap too!!

Just one more suggestion- Spring for a decent tap and die set. its worthy. lok tite you know-- these can usually be purchased @ an auto store -25-30 bucks- the M5 x 0.9 tap and die will be used frequently.- yea just make certan the set has-- M3 x 0.5, M3 x 0.6, M4 x 0.7, M4 x 0.75, M5 x 0.8, M5 x 0.9 -- ect ect--

I make my own thread chasers out of old screws. Just cut a slot into the side of the threads. Works really well.

I like that. Time to put the dremel to work.

Know what sucks though? It is all ready to run and now we are expecting a freaking hurricane this weekend. The RC Gods have the sickest sense of humor

I think the RC gods would like you to make a vid of the MT bashing in that hurricane. Don't you know everything happens for a reason.
