Ah, it's identical to the .28 Mach 427, though, isn't it? I know you can use the sleeve from a Mach 427 for the SW .26.

The mach 427 IS NOT a 28. Its a 26! Hence the name 427. Its a 4.27 cc engine which is equal to a .26 ci which is also the same as the sportwerks .26V2. A 4.6cc is equal to .28 ci.

Also shouldnt this belong in the engines forum? Just a thought!

Not offended at all but alot of people think teh 427 is a .28. Not sure why. Just clearing it up. This is a forum to get information. I understand that all the info here is not correct but should be corrected when needed thats all.

How would that Go match up to this new Axe Rossi do you think?? Also, how would it match up to a Mach 427??

Here's the link to the Axe:

http://www.paruamodel.it/store/viewi...idProduct=8220

I've been doing so much going back and forth between 21 or 28??, racing or bashing?? etc., I wonder if a good powerful 25 would just be the way to go.. So far the Mach in my Muggy RIPS, so I would think it would be even better in my lighter Hyper ST Pro.. - even for racing..

I've heard of carb issues or crummy carbs or whatever with the Go engines.. Does that apply to this 25 as well?? One of these engines went cheap here on e-bay yesterday.. []

the Go is a pretty potent mill... a completely different class then a Mach 427 IMHO
