ports

[nw10er]

I've noticed , same engine size but more or less ports , are the more ports better?

Typically the more ports the more power at high rpm i.e. rb c5 ok low end and insane top end. The less ports the more low end power i.e. Novarossi P5, insane low end, with good top.

Ports are located on the sleeve and they are for adding fuel/removing exhaust. Basically what your engine needs to run.

Cool!

Do you know what a standard Revo has?

Essentially intake + exhaust valve ports on a 4 cycle.

It helps me to think about these cars in real car terms
