Nova Rossi to O/S Lower?

[VansRacing]

New info:

We are finished with the prototype PTO that will adapt the (1.020" case) Nova Rossi power head to the O/S XM lower unit.

These parts will be available by the end of Jan 09.

Contact Glenn Quarles if you are interested in running your Nova Rossi on the O/S XM lower unit.

The next item on our list will be, manufacturing the 14.5mm cranks.

Hey Carl,

Will these PTO's be available on their own or do you have to buy the whole conversion kit? I already have a crankshaft

i made a fixture to hold the os back and turn it to .990 to fit my cmb rs 21. i know you are not running this but it was a fairly straight forward deal, i also had to mill the pockets for the bolts inward and mill new thru holes for the bolts, and trim the backplate thickness down to the same as the other.. all in all i probably spent 3 hrs. on it and it was worth every bit of time.and i used all os parts and everything seems to be alright, testing in the spring will be the real decision maker.

Tim,

You can buy any single piece of anything we carry. The Nova Rossi / OS lower kit will require two parts to get you hooked up. First you wil need the PTO housing and then you will need the extended PTO drive shaft. The O/S XM PTO shaft is extended off of the stock PTO by .315" (8mm) where the standard PTO shaft for the K&B and lawless is much shorter. Too short to reach the top end of the O/S cable. So, to get your Nova Rossi hooked up to your O/S lower unit, you will need the housing and shaft and you'r ready to go. We will be assigning part numbers and final prices to these once they are finished and ready for sale.

Thanks Carl,

I'll keep an eye out for prices when available. Might grab one of your flywheels too.

Terry,

I originally got a complete OS PTO to graft into the Nova, but it's not really suitable to modify into a Nova. Instead, I had the OS PTO modified to fit into a MAC O/B pwerhead, which was pretty straight forward. I still want a nova /OS though!

Not to worry.....The "click" and crankpin to drive slot clearance in the PTO disc mean absolutely nothing.The click is neither good nor bad.... :wacko:

When the motor is running the PTO drive pin on the crank is in constant contact with the leading edge of the PTO disc drive slot.The clearance on the other side of slot could be .002" to .500".It makes no difference since the crank pin will "never" see the back edge of that PTO disc slot when the motor is running.
