I completely understand what you're saying. I want to get nice O.S. ASAP, but they both say 1.75 at 16,000 rpm. What other specs contribute to the power of an engine? Do these engines not have the same output? If the Mailbu can keep up with the vette . . . Fill me in! I'm not yet very technical.
I've only seen the TH46 operate on others' models. I was asked to help solve one's habit of dead-sticking. I was asked to help try and start a couple. They appear to be good engines for what they cost. But as for the 46 in comparison to the 55, they're in two entirely different worlds as far as power is conscerned. The savings in price has been an important topic to each owner of those TH's. While I worked, they explained why they'd bought the engine. They are cheap for sure. And in every case, after I got them running and adjusted, they appeared to be quite servicable. But as for power, they are average for 45s. So they were a good price for an average amount of power. How long they were going to last, I have no idea.
