Thanks for the reply,

Is the only visual difference the small label.

pe reivers

there is no small label
the engine has the carb trumpet and titanium prop bolt as visual differences. The ignition is the 10V type (3S-LiPo)

There appears to be a small engraving on the drive washer (part 1101).

Mine has the vlach ignition so i presume its a regular version.

Indeed there is the engraving.
Older prosports also had the Vlach ignition. Tha standard engine has a plain washer without engraving.

Do you know if it is OK to use an unregulated lithium battery at 7+ volts to power the Vlach ignition or will it cause damage?

Thanks

Vlach will only run with 4 nicad or 4 NiMh. Anything more will put the ignition at risk.

When prosport is back in stock? The new 50 is also interesting but I really want to see the price

Hi,

I have got a second hand MVVS-58 and I am trying to guess if its a Regular one or a ProSport.
I don't really understand what you guys mean for engraving, I observed my drive washer but I can't tell.

It has the VLACH ignition coded EZM 1 TI on its blue box and also with a number: 241834.
Do this tell something to some of you?

Here is the picture of my engine's drive washer:


Other then this I don't really know how to identify what's the engine I have!!!

The prop drive of the prosport has "prosport"  engraved on it. If not, you have the standard engine. In addition, the prosport has a titanium prop shaft. If yours is zinc plated, it is a standard engine. Other changes are inside the engine, like reworked piston and expensive bearings.

Ohhhh,

so looks like the one I have is a regular one, ok, that's nice to know...at least I can be sure of what I have.

Thank you very very much for helping me to find out, you have been of great help.

I received engine back from factory and both bearings were changed in warranty. Engine was testes and now I can put it back for next summer to come.

Great service[sm=thumbup.gif]
