Status: offline 		Man i have typed that out so many times on this thread Im just going to type out an entire page or ten of all the stuff that I found to work and how to do it I will post everything I know once and then every time I get asked ill just send it as a pm lol. Just read the last few pages or so of this thread and you'll see what works out and then if you have any questions ask me. Its just getting to the point that this thread is getting jammed with the same things over and over and over and over and over.

uhoo that thing is sweet I like the sound of that BB!!!! I think im going to go with the lrp z28r of the picco that my friend has(if it doesnt end up in his revo)

peewee there are no hpi axles that will just go right in if you want to use the hpi axles your going to have to change alot of parts man. Im making a list of everything that I have done to my tsunami and putting it up here and in the compatible parts thread as well. I hope to have it all done within the next day or so with all the part numbers and what nots you'll need to do it all up.

Status: offline 		I just took out my cvr and am going to put my sh engine in it I ported and polished it and took it to my buddies shop and he put the crank on some mini balancing maching and did some work on the conrod. (and one more secret performance mod) lol ill let you guys know how my secret mods worked before I tell you what I did just so I dont get any laughs if it wont run lol. But the way I look at it if its the same as any other 2 cycle engine its going to have a bit more power. Its still like a brand new engine with just over one galon through it. I hope its going to work good cuz my cvr is kinda getting tired.

You should be able to get to it through the exhaust port. Just use the tip of a screwdriver to push it up

Status: offline 		Thats a good find retro. Well I took out my tsunami today with the ported+polished SH 18 factory tsunami engine (among other great secrets that im not sure if im going to share lol) and it ran so good started on the first pull and defenately has way more power then the stock sh 18 and im sure that it even has a bit more then my os cvrx 18 (not sure tho its close) Well everything was going great I was so happy and then.......................... I rolled it at about 15 mph ish did some cart wheels lol and landed on its wheels (not running a body this time) so I take off, I had just filled it up with gas and was starting to notice that the temps were getting high (260) gave her a quick tweek on the hsn and away I go but there still getting higher (270) so I really open that hsl up a good quarter turn and givver again.......temps still rising.........uhhhhhh noy good so I shut it oss and that when I noticed that my air cleaner was gone........... an entire tank of gas with no air cleaner............So I took it all apart and gave it a clean, put it together again took it out for a test and now its got almost nothing.... The sleeve got scored up bad from all the dirt............

here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBOqnltOSZo
