those axial .28s are pretty nice so far in my experience. they aren't hard to control powerful but definitely doesn't lack power in any case that I've run into. and so far tuning is really easy. i still have yet to threadlock the MSN, but hasnt posed an issue yet, and I've been watching its position to make sure its rotation/depth doesn't change.
Edit: though i do sort of wish i had found a silver cooling head one to fit into the truck a bit better. but at the time all they had in stock was green. the truck is about a shade away from looking like a rainbow unicorn anyways i guess with the GPM blue, AE blue, and purple.
Those axial 28's ,believe it or not ,the Hpi K series engine like the 5.9 shares the same internal o-way starter bearing ,I can
see if any of the heads fit ,I should have some old Ae. 28 heads laying some where.
I like stripping the blue iodine color off the aluminum ,some rides just don't look good with color!
I always liked that Ae.28 engine though ,it wasn't a whole lot of power ,but it was very reliable an easy to tune ,they
came out with two types of carb.s though ,first one did not come out with the mix meter setting ,that's the one that
I like ,an I actually run the Ae 28 carb on my Ofna hyper engine ,it freakin works great ,better than that composite type
in which they tend to leak like a siff!
I want to eventually see if that carb will fit on my 5.9 engine ,but I can't get the carb off ,I've trid several times over
the years!....
