Well Friday is almost here and after I make a payment on the ladies Slash and get my new fuel tank, I'm putting a deposit down on the new mill. I chose the OS 12 CV-RX. My LHS has 2 of them hiding in the back and he agreed to sell one of them for $120. Any reviews on this mill and since it's a discontinued engine, is the price good? Just want to make sure this is what I should do before making the jump.

Thanks
 
seems like a pretty fair price, just break it in right and run a quality 20% nitro blend like Trinity and it should last a while...

what is the average life span of a engine? I've seen ppl say 4 gallons is good and others say 8 to 10 gallons.
 
yeah tuning and how you run it are big factors I've seen o.s engines at 8 gallons
