RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Trevor makes some aswesome motors no doubt but it would be so expensive. I'm not sure how that would work with case reeds either or if thats even possible.

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Have any of you guys been able to get your hands on the HPI slipper clutch yet??? I'm curious how that would help with taking some shock out of the drivetrain with these bigger motors.

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Skopod hit 93mph with a modified 62cc and a specially designed 2 speed.so you are correct there. If you have seen the video of the speed runs you will notice a couple of problems. First being these...

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

You don't need a 2 speed on a twin or a 62 for that matter. You can run underdrive gearing if you can find someone to make it for you. There is so much power there it totally negates the need for the...

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

There is another major problem with accurate dyno testing of these engines.  Pipes so many pipes,  Air cleaners, Velocity stacks,  Carbs, Fuels, Oils........ the list goes on and on and on.  Without...

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

I know he's at least going to build 1 of them where it goes from there I don't know. But it will be cool to see and hear run. Brice is a master that tank he built last year for RCXwas amazing.

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Exactly. I love all the choices and who cares. Iwant to see a 4 stroker come out, sure probably less power but I would stick one in a Baja for the heck of it. Its great to see all the options that...

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Just because you have a dyno doesn't make you an expert in anything. Who knows what you are doing to get your magic numbers. Are we spose to take your word for it???? I mean really come on. I have...

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Did you not say you offered to pay shipping to have them send you a motor to test? Ithink ya did.

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

Just a thought but perhaps you should spend the money and buy one of each of these motors and not expect people to send them to you for testing. By owning the engine and commenting on its performance...

RE: Horsepower War A Brewing!!!

I will say this as far as the 62's go since I own them. They are incredible torque monsters and alot of fun to have in a car. They can easily be run with underdrive gearing as will. As far as the...
