If you need torque then I suggest my clocked B5 https://clockworkracingengines.com/c...rk-werks-b5-21 , combined with the werks 2057 tuned pipe it is an amazing package.... Faster and more powerful then any stock engine you can buy, great on fuel, super easy to tune and an all around awesome engine.....Wehn you take this bab boy out on the track everybody will be asking what your running !
whats the gas miledge on that engine, as an engine modder myself I know changing port timings makes themiledge worse. which may be critical in a race. having to refuel alot. but a wicked fast engine can put you way out frontwithgood driver skill so making a extra fill up may not make a difference at all.

Fuel mileage is very good on the modified B5.... We were running 6 minute qualifiers yesterday with one and after 6 minutes it had used slightly over 1/2 tank.... We were running against plus 4, OS Speed as well as a few V-Spec's and the modified Werk's used no more fuel then any of them..However the power and RPM difference was quite large, the modified B5 was easilly the strongest truggy engine at the track.... Truthfully you will not find a stock Nova that will come anywhere close to the performance of the modified B5, nor will the Nova's tune as easily.....The new 2010 Werk's engine have a fantastic carburetor that tunes better then any other brand I have run to date.... Excellent engines.... my driver TQ'd and won A-Main truggy yesterday with the mod B5......
sounds great! I love winning races. I havent ran in compitition for so long. I figured your modified Werkswould runfaster than the nova. I changed a couple port timings on my stock savage xengine and it really did respond well. Im nowhere near a pro enginemodder. I know a change some timing but thats it. the reason i asked about fuel consumption is causewhen I changed the timing on my F4.6 it was a monster but alsothe fuel consuption went way down. my losi 454 i will try some different things to see ifi can get better miledge. anyways thanks for the responseon my question...

are u the Clockwerks engine modder? do you know a guy named Robin he does themods for ERCM. I talk to him once an awhile on savagecentral about engine mods. he does somegreat work. ive seen alot of yourmodded engines on y tube you do some greatwork also.
