haven't had a chance to read the whole thread but here's my comments.
-i don't know enough about modding to critisize or praise your porting or timing
-i do know that it looks very well done (from a machining point of view) and hey, if it runs well clearly it was a sucess!
good job [8D][sm=thumbs_up.gif]
Now theres a person with a very good head on their shoulders... With that said, I beleive the article from R/C car Action, "How to hot rod your nitro motor" got alot of people asking questions, including me when I saw the article here on this site. I personally respect the magazines opinions and or articles for the most part, and their article about the porting didnt dissapoint. It was nothing radical, but basic cleaning up the sleeve ports with some grinding and polishing. It just makes the motor run better IMO. Anytime we do a modification on anything, we are risking making things worse, but for me and others I read about, the risk was worth it. Cheers.
Yes for me it was worth it this eco engine now runs like a big dog.
