Default LRP .30 video

The General has a new LRP .30 under the hood. 17/47 gearing with the stock plastic pipe and stock clutch.

What pipe are you running? Is that an exhaust deflector I saw on the exhaust? It certainly has that SH engine sound. Thanks for posting it up! Glen

Editing... duhh... If I would only read I would see the stock plastic pipe.... [&:]

Nice little engine there that LRP is. Has torque like a mother, and sounds great. Keeps up well with mine too, easy starting and doesn't stall. I just thought the idle needed to be picked up on the engine a tiny bit cause braking kills it.

sounds very good i'd love to see that with some aluminum shoes and a better pipe, i bet that thing would really rip... tho it coulda been the pipe, but you did sounda little rich on the bottom in the beggining to me at least....

Keep in mind that he is still breaking it in... That was the 7-9th tank roughly and he was running 3 mixed fuels at once with some added Klotz oil on the stock pipe- so I think that engine has tons of potential...

I have more fuel than that through mine, but I do not think mine will run that hard yet without locking the piston in the sleeve. I am anxious to try it though!
