os rz engines

[rcnitronutt]

did OS stop making the RZ line of engines? i have a buddy who wants to sell a RZ-V01B, real cheap. i can't find any prices from any online dealers, whats this engine worth brand new. & is it worth buying at all.onder2:

They are good engines, but they do not make them anymore. Great mill, I've seen them sell new (recently) for 200+

 

[rcnitronutt]

so $150.00 new is a good price?
whats the deal with the boost ports? does this really add more umph?
anything wrong with having this boost port.
any comparison to a collari b3?

 

[vbgagnon]

Much more low end and more top end. It is a very very strong low end engine, I would compare it to a P5, but with more top end.

The boost port IMO was a sales pitch a few years back. All the high end engines had them, but there is nothing wrong with them. Just make sure the fuel line is in good shape and check it like you would check the rest of your fuel lines.

150 is a pretty good price.

thats cool ! guess ill take it off his hands. any recomendations for a pipe & clutch?

 

[vbgagnon]

not sure about clutch, but os engines typically run good with the os 2050 pipe.
