Loughbd,
ASP'S and Magnum's run right along side of any other sport motor that I have seen. My .46XLS with a Tower muffler would wip the snaught out of a .46FX. My little Magnum .61RFS which I was talking about recently (low compression) runs like a watch a watch, and is actually getting better (compression) every day I run it. I am turning a 13-4W @ 10,000 on 10%.
I am very happy with it. I will buy a ASP or Magnum any day over a OS of the same design and still have a pocket full of money.
The engines you worked on years ago are not the same thing anymore. The Chinese have come along way. You have to get your head out of the dirt. THey have improved there quality drasticaly.
For another example look at the Tower .75, it really performs.

I still work on them. I repair engines as a part time job. The only engines that I see causing anguish at the local fields are the cheap Chinese imports. The guys using OS, Enya, Saito, etc never seem to have a tenth of the problems. You go ahead and buy it and I'll continue to make money trying to get them to run reasonably well. Plus, I see no reason to build the Chinese economy. In case you have forgotten, they are COMMUNISTS and still tend to beat up on their people and use slave labor. I spent too long in the military to deal with them more than I have to.

If you can get it to your door for that price, I'd say go for it. I've bought a few .91 and .65 ASP's while traveling in China. I paid 65 and 85 USD. Granted no shipping was involved.
ASP's are wonderfull engines. The only issue I had was the cam cover bolts vibrated loose on my .91. Other than that, they are very powerful and reliable engines. Check out justengines.co.uk They sell and have some reviews on the ASP line.

I STILL work on engines. I repair them as a part time job and I work on the latest out there. I work on more Chinese engines than all the other put together. Most have carb problems. And I spend most of my time setting them up to run reasonably well. Also leaks and things like that. Most of the anguish I see at the local fiels are with Chinese imports. Almost never with OS, Saito, Enya and the Italian Super Tigres.
Get my head out of the dirt??? Now that sounds like a flame, degradation or an insult to me. Dave? Take note.
One other little Item. I refuse to buy from communist countires if I can help it. I spent too many years in the military fighting them to help fill their coffers.

Shipped to the US a 70 four stroke would cost 142.25 and the 91 four stroke would be 162.65 Not to bad of prices considering that hobby people is selling the Magnum 70 and 91's for 179.99 and 199.99 plus shipping. I wonder if you could buy multiple engines and cut down on the shipping costs. 27.50 for shipping from China to the US for one engine really brings the price up.
Anyone order from this company in the US? And know about the shipping?
