If you want the baddest engine for a Savage it would be a Picco.28 P3

A Turbo RC engine generally refers to the style of Glow Plug. You have the standard plug that uses a copper gasket to seal. Then you have a Turbo plug that has a tapered nose that seals against the head like most 1:1 use.

The 5.9 is not a turbo head engine. And what the hell is a turbo crank?

rule of thumb bigger the mill colder the plug stock also hotter makes better low end and idle colder better top end

as for a motor a lrp .30 or a picco .28 p3 are the way to go with a 054 and 086 respectivly, neither are tubro plugged but they do lay down the power

dropping a tooth on the CB may also be a good idea for you

They already had that topic and the biggest population says they don't work. or they work but would use way more fuel, don't matter I'll stick with what I have.

Yea how they are setup now they dont work. If they would redsigne them so that the super charger fit in to the crank case and the carb fit in to the supercharger then it would be a much better setup. Other wise the pressure just pushes the fuel back from the carburetor in to the fuel tank. Any carbureted supercharged or turbo'ed engine will have the carburetor completly enclosed in the pressureized air box other wise it wont draw fuel like it should.

I am sure R&B's design istn the best ethire, since their super (paper) filter is just a crank case filter for a 1:1 car that can be bought for a couple of bucks at an automotive parts house.
