Rody:

I currently own a V12, 410. I am generally happy with it around the local tracks, but I need a little more "oomp" out of the motor to be able to run in larger tracks, namely for the Florida State series (eg. Ft.Myers where the Florida Winternats is held is one of those tracks). I use my Novarossi NS3 on the larger tracks and am mostly satisfied.

I want to modify the 410, so I am able to run this motor on the large traks as well.

Modification proposal:
1. Changed to the turbo plug button.
2. Modified sleve (for better gas flow). Similar to the Rody Edition.
3. Change the crank to 1700-467 (turbo crank).

Questions:
1. Will the above changes increase the power/responsiveness similar to the Rody Edition motors (eg. 435)
2. Is there any significant increase in power with the 1700-467 crank, or did I just spent $60.00 for nothing. I still haven't installed this.
3. What further modification to the crank can you suggest? (I am very effective with a dremmel tool)

Thank you in advance for your thoughtful answer.

1) Normally yes.
2) There is a little power increase but I do not think you will notice this.
3) This is totally up you you to try and find out, however I suggest you try first this new configuration before you start doing this.
