blown engine joy
#27
hi chris,

i understand what you are saying.

but im not racing it, which it why the flywheel gets almost cut to nothing.
being couterballanced gives a smoother running engine as well.

ill be totally honest, and say a phoenix would probably be fine "but not as good". but as they were positively arse`hole like on the phone to me when the new owners took over.  i went of the idea, and no longer promote there products. also there cranks were AS USUAL not available at the time. and the hadley was.

i also like the fact that the hadley has a better nitride standard, rather than the cheap alternative to so call keep the price down. but buyers of these items wouldnt know that because they are supplied without a SPEC sheet. were as the hadley IS.

4 tinny triangles were cut to fit the hadley, and you forget they are even there. once the engine is built up.

for the extra cost of £100 to buy the hadley new, over the phoenix. my mind was made up. although this extra cost was offset by the hadley 45% rods being £100 cheaper than the old fashioned phoenix version.

tony.
