Default RE: OS 33GT Gasoline Engine for Pattern


ORIGINAL: cmoulder

It appears that it has tork to burn at 6500 rpm. I am pretty impressed so far with the output but it's early. More this weekend I hope. It's a little noisy with a 2 blade up front. I'll see how it does with a 3 blade soon
Sounds good, Matt!

Maybe a 16x12 3-blade, if there is such a beast.

I have an old Bolly carbon 16x11 3 blade. Ran it on the Webra 160 years ago. It was noisy as heck on the ground (compared to a 17x12 apc) so this is no solution except to see how the load stacks up. Working on a 18x10 3 blade hybrid. Mejzlik also ahs an 18x10 3 blade carbon and I may get one of them some day.

BTW I just received the Hatori headers #2301 and 2551. Very nice looking, very light. Compared to the stainless DA header I'm using on the DLE55, this is less than 1/2 the weight. The flange is welded to the tube at the bend so it shouldn't break there.
