Once again well done julian hanging too see these vids from rotor geek!!! Cheers joel. i agree if these melbourne or other interstate cars want to compete on a more even level with these guys then dont harp about them being manual do it theres nothing stopping then from doing the same as these guys are doing. i know people are going to say ohh but its x amount of dollars to do that but in the end i guess its a dedication thing if your totally dedicated to getting to the top of this field you will spend if not then you be behind and dont sook about it.

Sorry for derailing the thread, back on topic guys.

KIL-351Archived member
na i pulled them out, i was going to sell the old engine complete that why i bought brand new parts for the new engine, if i had known the old engine was busted up and unable to reuse parts i would have kept the argos for it.. argos are just as good if not better than the onles i got now but the rods wont break either way the argo rods were the only thing salvagable out of the old engine.. everything else was demolished..
