PARIS REX ENGINE ?
 
I JUST RECENTLY GOT BACK INTO THE SPORT AND FOUND AN OLD 8 PORT MODIFIED PARIS REX ENGINE IN MY BOX THAT WAS BOUGHT BACK IN 1992. THE PISTON AND SLEEVE ARE SHOT. IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN STILL GET PARTS FOR IT? AND DO YOU THINK THAT THE MOTORS TODAY ARE OF BETTER QUALITY AND MORE POWER? I WOUD APPRECIATE ANY INPUT .

Technology has def. changed in the past 12 years. I dont know the specs on that modified motor but I know even the Hyper 21 8 port "sport" motor puts out a whopping 2.45+ BHP. That could be alot more power than your modified or not. I dunno. And that motor sells for around $110-130 new on the bay all day long.

I THOUGHT THEY STOPPED MAKING THIS MOTOR YEARS AGO. I KNOW PARIS AND REX SPLIT AND THEY ARE NOW WITH DIFFERENT COMPANIES, I THINK MUGEN AND PICCO. I COULD BE WRONG AND IF YOU SEE ONE ON EBAY PLEASE LET ME KNOW.,
