found these links first ones translated so might not be that clear
second one a canadian company might still do spares maybe
seems to be an innotech engine tuned by lamberto collari
who is a legendary engine maker tuner in his own right
someone else might be able to confirm but i think he used
to have something to do with novarossi
hth

Ask the guys over on maxbashing website, there great for all nitro stuff :thumbsup:

cheers guys thanks

That is not the correct carb for it though.

The Collari carb is made of alloy, that Sirio one won't fit the throat in crank case - I had one of these engines about 8 years ago, loved it, still rate it as the best engine I've had.

Notice the nipple on the crankcase and the one at the backplate, these should be connected with a length of fuel line - it's a boost chamber arrangement. DO NOT run this engine without it being connected.

Edit

On 2nd glance that carb looks like it may fit, be sure to get it seated straight though.

If you don't want it I'll have it!!!

Thanks for the info. I have 2 of these : ) the guy I bought the car said they were top engines really fast. That carb does not fit the port is to big by 1 mm I was going to see if I can get it turned down. The other engine has the correct carb with it this is my spare.
