both engines are HP 40's. both engines have steel liners with metal pistons. LOL metal pistons? what does that mean? LOL. the bearing are great, nice and smooth. well I wanted to buy a new ABC Liner & lapped Piston but $70 in parts for an engine I will most likely never fly is too much. but for sure I plan to run them on the stand next summer. I have all new rings for their carbs, all I need is a muffler.
I can't wait to run the rear carb version. LOL now you know where some of my 30% is going.
