XRAY - Model racing cars

Hi,

I have the optional engine mount for a Novarossi P5 assembled on my XB8R. Will an RB Concept engine fit on the very same engine mount or do I have to purchase a new one??

Thanx!

Yes, it should since they are both Nova. based engines.

yes ive used both....

Thers no problems with clearance with the v-spec.

I really havent noticed any problems installing any of them...

You shouldnt be worried about that, just put it in and race:-)

I run the v spec on mine but i have a problem with fly wheel not reaching down enough for the bump start i use the ofna strter box that the only problem i have did you need to change the engine mounts i used the standard ones the XB8 comes with.

Maybe your starterbox has to big diameter for the chassies. I think size varies from brand to brand of starterboxes...I use mugen one and it works great.

See if they have a smaller wheel for it....
or the last thing to grind the sides of the flywheel hole abit.

Or possibly try to get rubber higher placing shims under rubber inside starterbox (and possibly under engine).

I'm running Hobao plastic box, put 2-3mm under rubber mounts and box engine. (And slightly Dremel the box itself ) This way I got the whole thing bit higher and much better.
