SH is most probably the largest manufacturer of RC engines in the world. It's true that most of those end up in RTR kits for newbies to blow up. That's not the fault of SH however.
Their new line of purpose built race engines are very promising.
BTW, George Schuth keeps the blown engine thread on the Grid alive... LOL!!!!!!!!

most of the purpose built race SH engines are the ones that blow up cuz the materials are weak

sry but the 3.3 is the fastest small block on the market. The reason your 3.3 "blew up" is probly because of your lack of tuning abilities.

Interesting Mike, my SH P6 ProSpec .28 is their new race engine and I'm having very good luck with it. I'm actually getting their pt2004xb1, 8 port, .21 next.

Mich, Revo2k's didn't blow up he rolled it and broke the case, so it wouldn't be his lack in tuning ability, it would be his lack in driving ability.

the 3.3 motor does not get any longevity in most cases because they used the same rod and i believe bearings and increased the displacement putting alot of stress on those parts

mike is right. The bearings and rod are identical in the 2.5r and 3.3. My 3.3 blew up in under a gallon.

wow, my 3.3 has no problem running temps of 210 and making 45,000 rpm. Proper maitence and tuning will justify how long a motor will last. If anyone cares to have a grudge race of the small blocks let me know so I can whoop on you all with some 3.3 power. Also my motor is over the 2 gallon mark and still has great compression. No reason why it cant get 10 gallons right now.
