I'm just wondering how so is this possible? Also whats the difference between the
RB Concept V12 Circuit 3 Ports #01700-000425 and the RB Concept V12 Circuit 3 Ports #01700-000445. RB has now been ranking over everything else now from onroad to offroad racing. This will be my choice for engines for nitro sedan and 8th buggy. I need something that will run with the Rody 3 port engine and the standard V12 5 port is claimed to do so. For $100 less, will it do the job or will it fail me?

There is almost no difference between the 425 and 445, it is only the rules under which you are racing which makes the engines different.
Also the ratings we give on our website are only related to the contents, so you cannot compare the ratings we give between the .21 and .12 engines.

Oh no, I was comparing the regular V12 5 port turbo to the Rody V12 3 port turbo and wondering how does it have the same rating? It's pretty cool that it's as strong so I'd be interesting in buying it if that's the case. I'd hate to run the Rody in a regular parkinglot, which is what my friend is doing.

Big Dog,
For the rules:
EFRA, the inside diameter of the crankshaft is restricted.
ROAR, no rule for this.

Is it possible for these engines to be heat cycled? I'm a little skeptical on this method, but few have claimed for their RB engines to be broken in that way.
