    Great work its so satisfying working on these nice O.S engines

      OS did and still makes some of the best engines. The CV-R line up is a great middle ground between their vintage CV basher line and their Full Race engines.
      - The 18CV-R is a special engine that some many know and love. It’s great to be able to work on them, bring them back to life and share with everyone 💜
      Thanks for the comment and watchn’ David

      Hi Billy ‼️
      You are right but, make sure you mask the gasket and compression bowl area well
      - Do you happen to have an 18CV-R?

    Awesome Engine man !!
    Makes me want to run my O.S. Max CVR.12 engine that I have in the Kyosho V one RR.
    The engine is still breaking in, but I just got 12qts of 30/8 Bones Brew to run it on when it finished breaking in with the 20/12 Bones Brew.
    I was thinking about mixing the two blends of fuel I have from Bones Brew, what do you think?
    I was thinking if might make a 25/10 blend, which might be the perfect blend for me, but idk really., any thoughts?
    I'm excited to see your new build., and how the engine performs... Great video, Bud, keep it up 👍

    • @a2rc
      @a2rc  ปีที่แล้ว

      Ty Ty. OS has always made some nice engines (in all price ranges).
      - Since the fuel is from the same manufacture I would say it is fine to mix them (I may not recommend mixing large qty of fuels from others manufactures). The oil package would be the same so, just shake them up well before you do and do a 50/50 mix.
      - I’m interest to hear how that goes. Maybe drive a little bit (Re tune for each type) on each type of fuel to see the differences. Would be a fun little test
      As always, thanks so much for the comment and for watchn’

    Awesome engine I’ve managed too snag a brand new one of these with the silver head I wanna put it in my HPI. WR8 would this have any benefit over the force 18 as you have both thought I’d ask awesome content as always man love your channel

      Hey Joe! Sorry your message got lost in the mix. Very sorry about that!
      Thank you for the kind words and I'm happy you are enjoying the vids. I apprecite you watchn'
      - The 18CVR will be a great addition to your WR8. From my testing, the CVR and the force 18s (There are a few flavors as you know), the CVR edges most of them out or are very similar in their power out put. Both would be good choices but, you get extra "cool" points with the CVR! lol
      I am most interested in the 18R that we will be doing an overview on an upcoming Engine overview but, you can't beat the Silver on Silver for the V1-18CVR (the 18R black on black looks good too).
      - The 18CVR is one of my favorite engines. Have you ran/owned one before this?
      - I can't wait to hear what you think about it. Please let me know how things go!

      @@a2rc it’s sound my dude and can’t wait too get it running I’m waiting for a few parts before the cvr gets dropped in mostly the new polished exhaust that’ll match the silver head of my 18cvr this is my first os 18 i heard so many good things had too pick one up and the wr8 is one of my fav cars so thought it would be a great match plus never seen an os18 in a wr8 anywhere before so possibly a first if possible ill try get hold of a speed indicator too see if the new tuned pipe and engine set up improves anything from stock
      Plus the force 18 can go in my cen fun factor st as its cen .16 is running low on compression and has a few tanks left I think

    What crank do you have to use on the RS 4 nitro with a 2 speed??

    • @a2rc
      @a2rc  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the question and for watchn’ ‼️
      -99% of the time a Standard crank style is what you want for a RS4. For belted RS4s you will need a 2Speed pilot shaft/flywheel nut for the 2Speed bell, etc. depending on which bell you use for shaft cars, you may end up using a single speed pilot shaft for the 2 speed bell. Just for info.

      @@jasondubur647 For vintage Touring cars with a 2 Speed, you can’t go wrong with a belted 1/10 Nitro RS4 (Racer, Racer 2, RTR, RTR2, etc). The drive and handle much better than the shaft cars and other belted cars from its time. You could put a lot of power to the ground in one with the 18CVR
      - You can always go with a race kit/version car too. Example R40, R10, V1R, GT4, Edam, NT1, G4, etc. lots of great platforms to choose from
