Great vid bruh, These nova engines got what it takes but yeah you MUST tear down and inspect everything before you start the thing. The G9R engine for on road is a monster
Looking good so far. I know you've got a roma aswell be interested to see how it compares as i love my roma but spares are very hard to find so would like a replacement engine.
Its looking much better than the first batch of Novas. The ports are Big! The crank window aswell! This engine is not designed for fuel economy ! Is the crankshaft still as tight as it was in the b5? This is very interesting, I wish I had one in my hands to check the numbers and compare it to my p324. If you are happy with it in the long run, I may try one 🤔 A shame for the wrist pin and the steel bearing.. but you cant complain, you got much better aftermarket service than me 😆
Yeah for sure, I’m much more happy with the t6r than the b5r the fit and finish is much better, the crank comes out of the block like it should. And it runs fantastic much more reliable than the b5r once again. End of this season I’ll disassemble this engine and see how it’s held up.
@@thenitronation5815 I bought this engine in febuary, and i have had nothing but problems with it. My initial experience was like yours, fired up and ran beautifully through the break in process. a week later i take the car out just to do some tuning and run some more fuel through it, did not touch any setting on the carb and it just gags on fuel all through the midrange. last week i tore the engine down, found the DLC coating has flaked off the crankshaft, midspeed needle had a torn o ring, . i was shocked at how easily you are able to remove the head and sleeve- i had to heat gun the snot out of mine and it was still very difficult to remove. i replaced the midspeed needle and took it for a quick test drive still acts about the same, just no power, always loaded up on fuel. can you tell me where your needle settings are at and what % of nitro you're running? ive been figting with this thing for 5 months and im at my wits end
@nateharris1918 my b5r was like that, it was a dud just nothing went right with it. I would just try to return it like I did mine. I thought this t6r was going to be the same way but so far it has been flawless, break in was easy, took 10 minutes or less to tune, has lots of power and runs consistent. I run it on 30%
Definitely wouldn’t be running any of those novas for racing ever since jarred Wiggins started running them he hasn’t been competitive seems like he is always having an issue
@@jonpye8655 you didn’t catch all the metal that came out of it? You shouldn’t have to dis assemble a factory assembles race engine to check for metal and to actually find metal is just unacceptable
