Default RE: EME 55 DLE's new Cousin?

I bought it from Cyclone. They are going run all the sales for international dealers, for what I understand.
As a user view I think there is some effort to bring out a good product, the bearings, the new reedblock, the fact that the engines have a serial number, the package, etc. Of course all this mean nothing if the engine doesnt perform as good as a DLE. About the dle conrod and copied cylinder, don´t know and don´t care, if the engine runs good and strong. If the conrod is from a faulty run, we will see, but It doesn´t make any sense to put a crapy conrod on a engine then do an extra effort to put good bearings and a redesigned or rede-copied reedblock, where there is a ton of them already available for cheap money.
I am going to give this engine 2 hour of easy flight, break in procedure, and then just fly as hard as possible. Hope can post some initial numbers next week.
