S**t engine lol i should no i got one for the first few months mine was fine recently i have been so anoyed with it it never holds a tune when you tune it it will run for about 10 mins max as you said then will start over reving and beeping making a werid noise as if there is an airleak or its to lean but if you put it anyrich it just bogs out. i though it was down to my needle backing out but i have changed orings and they are not moving so i duno.
all i can suggest is what i am going to do put it back to factory start again driving up and down the road.

RE: engine problems....?
yeah its a strange engine alright. it came in my hyper 8 rtr i dont plan on changing it until it kicks the bucket though as i just use it for bashing about.
as for you changing enigne when you race would you not rathe rrace in sportsman class or wateva with .21 rather than outlaw with .26 or .28 or what way does your track work?
i no you cant race any enigne over .21 unless in outlaw.

Is you track long or short?
If you've got the money go for an RB motor
for budget engines look at SH .21 (sportwerks, nosram, LRP etc), Go .21, or STS .21

Where's the hole again? If the engine does have an air leak this will most likely be why the engine has been running lean. But as you say, it may not be the "hole" problem..

RE: engine problems....?
