I don't know about short life but, I do know it is dam fast, holds a tune and starts every time! Fantom .27!
I have seen the RB .28 run in person and it has plenty of power, starts and holds an idle good. Would I pay $300-$350 for one NO! I could buy a new Fantom and rebuild it 2 times for that and the Fantom has a faster top end.
LOL The RB will easy pull in 9-10 gallons before needing a rebuild. So thats like 9 rebuilds of a Fantom [:'(]
