    Flex Hex HELP Please!

    Remy fitted my motor with a custom collet. The OS .21 collet with spacer would NOT work on my motor, probably because I'm using a custom flywheel. As I understand it, Remy took one of his long-hex .187 collets and rounded/tapered the end that normally goes against the flywheel to fit inside the...

    Busting the Myth?

    LOL. First of all, GO Engine does in fact offer motors with OS-style fully threaded cranks for marine use. Many don't know this because the company is so new and better known for their offroad motors. Some GO sellers just buy whatever they can get their hands on (i.e. offroad motors) and simply...

    Venom RTR Scale-look Catamarans

    Venom is set to introduce two new cats that are absolutely gorgeous, and exactly what many offshore fans have been longing for. At this point, information on the King of Shaves and Segad is limited, but these cats are set to pounce mid-May. What we do know is that the 58" FG hulls will be...

    Busting the Myth?

    Jerry, first of all GO Engines are not made in China. Secondly, I don't plan on racing the boat, so no .25 class isn't an issue here. Pull starters can be a bit of a drag - pardon the pun - but there are GO .25 buggy and boat motors available without. Preston, I didn't say that all motors are...

    Busting the Myth?

    Recently, I purchased a GO Engine .25 buggy/offroad motor with the intention of putting it in my new catamaran; the engine & specs can be found at http://www.go-engine.com/in-products/R2500-M00HSG.htm After doing an extensive amount amount of research, I learned a great deal about car motor...

    Pipe & Length

    Is a 6-port motor better for a boat? I had a well-known motor mod guy tell me the GO 6-port sleeve from the Competition .25 will fit in my (3-port) .25 - does this sound right? I wouldn't think the 6-port sleeve works in my crankcase. Thoughts?

    Pipe & Length

    I have a GO Engine .25 3-port offroad motor being converted for marine use; a full mod job will also be done (timing, turbo crank, etc.), so I'm looking for a good tuned pipe. What kind of pipe would be best? And what pipe length should work well? I was thinking a .21 pipe but don't know if...

    New CAT Build - Please comment

    Thanks for your input. You definitely made some good points. In terms of possibly over-cooling the motor with a water-cooled head, I'm not too concerned as there are ways of limiting how much water flows thru the head. I made a water-cooled copper coil for the exhaust header; In very cold...

    New CAT Build - Please comment

    Hello all, I'm planning out a new nitro-powered semi-scale offshore catamaran and want to hear what everyone thinks about it. The Hull is a fiberglass 32" Hydro & Marine Agitator that will be reinforced with carbonfiber. Here is what I'm thinking: Power: fully mod'd (ported, turbo crank, etc.)...

    Flex Hex HELP Please!

    Thanks alot, guys. This is the information I was looking for. My motor is en route so once it arrives I will have a closer look, take some measurements and give Aeromarine a call. Thanks again! UPDATE: I just got off the phone with Remy at Aeromarine. He provides excellent customer service and...

    Flex Hex HELP Please!

    Hello, I purchased a new motor for my boat, which has a 7mm threaded "SG" shaft - the threads sit inside the flywheel, though; I can maybe connect a collet that'll fit inside the flywheel, however I'm wondering if the threads are still too deep on the shaft to screw the collet on enough...
