What's the difference between these 2 engines? Which one will give more power/performance? I know that #1700-00445 is EFRA/ROAR legal and #1700-000425 is ROAR/IFMAR legal, since EFRA is more strict/rule on the engine, does this mean #1700-000425 is a little faster than #1700-000445? Thank you.

What is referred to the special team-engines are probably the engines which we check and pré-run in the factory. These engines we use for the bigger races like EC and WC, however they come from the normal production.

If the engine overheats(which is quite possible for the .12 engines) and you use an aluminum carburetor then vaporlock can make it very difficult for your engine to get started again. You need to let it cool down which sometimes in a race is not really possible.

Can I make the 435 to a 425? Or are there too many diferences(beside the carburator)? Where are the difference(the crank case, crank shaft, piston and sleve)?

Please clarify . I have a V12rody 3pt and a V12rody 5pt. where is the relation between 425 and 445? is 425 the 5pt cause it is more powerful?

May I ask, why is the piston and sleve 1700-037 so expensive? Is there any difference in materials between the regular one and the modify one or is just the work done to it? Thanks for your time.

I am about to rebuild my V12 Rody 425. Can I use #1700-036R set in my Rody 425? What are the differences between #1700-037R & #1700-036R? Are their any performance difference? Thank you.

Yes, you can interchange these parts, the difference between these 2 piston/liner sets are the pistons, one is machined out of solid aluminum and the other is casted. Both are equal in performance, we did not find a lot of difference in performances.
