Supertigre G-27??

[Zachary]

Okay on monday i will be recieving a brand new, never had a drop of fuel through it, G-27 engine from a warhead. The guy I'm getting it from bought the warhead and then bought a os30vg and is just giving me the engine. My only question is what do i need to make it fit in my savage since its a short shaft?

Since it's a short shaft, you have three options.

1.) Replace the crankshaft (the most expensive yet easiest fix)

2.) Use a clutch setup from the Warhead (Probably not the best route)

3.) Use a clutch nut from the Warhead (Cheapest)

Of the three, I'd go with option #1.

Sell it. I have yet to hear one good thing about that engine.
The dyno hp performance of it is horrid as well
Get an LRP Spec 3, unbeatable bang for buck at around $170

I had that same exact engine in my raze and never had a problem with it. The pull start broke all the time and after 3 pull starters I just bought a rotostarter for it and never had a problem one. Would always start right up after just a second of turing as long as it was tuned. it held a tune well and was always real strong. But I'm thinking I might sell it anyways just to get an engine that has an sg shaft.

Well i just got the engine and it is brand new. The engine still has the cover over the head of it. It's a short shaft but i have a cluch nut that is on it and now just waiting for a new spur and it will be break in. Going to do the haeat cycle. I will post up results of the thing after break in.
