Sportwerks Engine Problems! - AWFUL KANAWFUL - 06-22-2006
I was at the track sunday and my buggy was doing fine then in the first qualifier my connectring rod broke below the wrist pin and it put a hole in the engine case. the engine temp has never been over 275
HAS ANYBODY ELSE HAD PROBLEMS WITH SPORTWERKS ENGINES OR DID I DO SOMETHING WRONG?

thats how those SH motors are, they are fast, but very little durability

it seems that the Sh motors that dont have the bushing at the wrist pin have the durability issues....
Ive had 3 24/7 pros and i feel i got more than my monies worth outta all of them...
I had an an sh .28 that blew the rod at like 1/2 gallon though... No bushing

I coulda sworn there was a bushing there when I blew the rod through the case on the SH.... But IDK lol.
