A' Don Ferrette, I'm skating on thin ice? Why for treating people they way they have treated me in the past? I too, am a long standing member. I'm done with putting my head down at the rude ones who sarcastically and condescendly try to belittle people. In that case it was the IMPBA and...

Thanks guys I kind of thought a CMB wrap around type short pipe myself but it just didn't have the same build style and tooling. So I ditched the CMB. I at first, thought it would make a great pipe for a zipp kit rigger .21, No matter who manufactured it as the build quality is wow stunning. Now...

Trying to find info on older stuff or even some new stuff is pretty much a dead horse on line with rc boat stuff. Example: I just posted a question about a tuned pipe, and that had me thinking. I am also a ex BMX bike racer and am still active, Then I thought (If this was a BMX related question...

Was not sure where to post this question about a pipe I have. I would like to know what it is, who manufactured it and for what size engine. I have seen these pipes before but that was a while ago, came with a bunch of pipes I acquired. Value I could care less I just would like to know what it...

Back about 5 years ago I placed an order for a 21 predator OB through a 2nd party vendor (Won't mention who but he is a top notch seller and trusted) Anyways he could not get the hull either from Aeromarine and it never came. The 2nd party vendor offered me a free leecraft OB and my money back...

The knock off is most likely better anyways. And affordable too. People wouldn't buy the knock offs if the originals were affordable. FYI, if the originals were affordable, the forger wouldn't have a market. You did it to yourself. Pretty disgusting you would mention the IMPBA and new members...

Thanks to technology we can do this rather easy today. But back in the 90's we didn't have all this software available, and we had to do, what we had to do. Me, back then I worked for a sign co, Cook County Signs. So I knew to take a prick wheel and trace the plans, putting tiny pin holes...

Old post but people still read this. I find that when my propshaft gets worn out and sloppy it creates friction and or pushes against the thrust bearing, or sits crooked in the housing, and this binds, This puts the cable under more stress than it can handle (obviously)... I don't need a dyno to...

I had the Drag N Fly round nose sport 40, and the eagle back when. Both with the same Sig Rossi 40 and hardware. The Drag N Fly was a pain to trim out but the eagle was very simple to trim. Templates forget that. I once hand cut a Dumas Hawk from templates, it is a lot of work, I ended up simply...

The Dumas Eagle is a awesome sport 40 kit. If you can find one that is. It would really get you ready for building a 1/8th.

Yeah, way in the past. I like the large needle and alloy barrel. If it wasn't for the heavy needle this carb would be super light. Hard for me to get rid of it as these carbs rocked. I figure it don't sell I'll put it on a 13mm outboard.

3 days was long enough for this to be listed.

That's food for thought, facts. Less than 900 members kidding me?

Food for thought 1995/96 the IMPBA had about 2700 members. I have a 95/96 member list. 2020 the IMPBA has less than 900 members. I just checked the IMPBA site. Thats a huge loss. No matter what ya all say, it's not the nitro engine tuning, cost of fuel, noise, or cost of hobby or lack of...

I have a new in unopened package K&B lower complete. 50 plus shipping. I'm waiting on the K&B composite lower to come out.

Sold do to stupid replied. ya all can thank jerry for that.

Yes I know this, I have owned Sig Rossi's in the past both marine Sig Rossi .40 front exhaust inboard marine, and a few car engines, I think I even had a sig in a 1/8th scale bike but that was so long ago. Even owned the early airplane engines.(Back in the late 90's). The term Rossi is generic...

Pulled from a boat I bought. The listing on here said new engine, I don't know what that actually means, "never ran new, or ran a few times" new? Looks like never ran or at least only a few times. Engine does not feel broken in. Tight, like factory pinch I never ran it. I simply don't like...

I have a few items for early K&B 3.5cc engines. Parts are new never used pulled from a 3.5 SI #8380 engine. Case, piston "Early 0.75 OD", K/B Script con rod, sleeve, and teflon wrist pin $120 plus shipping All items are mint pulled from a unused NOS engine # 8380 3.5 si Kenton Ohio 43326

Very happy with the purchase. Had to do some simple hull repairs, gap filling super glue, sanding, and drying out of the stringers (Normal with old hulls). If I need, I'll just cut out the motor mount wood and replace with new. I don't think I'll have to go to that extreme. Ordered a flax...
