Hey, i think its time to triple the power of my 8 here in australia. ill be checking out your build deets for ideas and guidance. So sick of the renesis 13b! i had a rebuild and balance about 50,000 km back and today she wouldn't start, and they found metal in the oil! Could be a bearing they said, so now its engine strip time, have the choice, either prep it for the Esmeril Trubo kit i just bought or purchase a 20b and spend the extra on a real engine......mmm, wot would the rest of u do? $$$???
