[NSRCA-discussion] For Sale

Hi Jerry,

I don’t recall but it would make sense that it would. They just seemed to breathe and work with the pipe a lot better and the power boost was impressive. It’s amazing how much I’ve forgotten about back then but the pipe was a Hatori and I think we ran the header full length with about a ¾” gap in the coupler. I want to say that the prop with that combo was an APC 13-10 but I wouldn’t swear to it. By comparison, I found the Hanno to be unimpressive but that anodized head looked pretty nice. I’m pretty sure I was running K&B 1-L plugs and low nitro fuel, like 5 or 10%. If my time frame memory is correct, they were in Summit II’s and Summit III’s. 

I actually swapped out the Hanno for one of those modified long strokes because I wanted the extra power. I also tried a YS long stroke back then and it didn’t make as much power either so I sold it as well.

The tip about raising the port actually came from Dave Scully (Aero Composites) and I’m pretty sure he learned it from either Geoff Combs or Dean Koger. I remember it being a very easy and powerful setup that didn’t require frequent needle tweaking. I seem to recall having some header breakage problems early on that we resolved but I can’t remember how. Maybe making the pipe mount softer so it could move with the soft-mounted engine? Anyway, I was fortunate to have a friend at the time that had daily access to a Bridgeport so the mod to the exhaust port was no problem. Seems like a lifetime ago….

Hey Verne,

By doing so you extended the relatively conservative exhaust port timing, upping it into the range of the Webra's, Rossi's, and OPS's.  The OS were always under scavenged compared to other motors of the day, and accordingly lower in power output.  Just guessing, but your fuel consumption went up a bit with the mod?

Back in the day, I had both Hanno’s and the standard .61 long stroke. On a tip, I had .030 milled off the top of the exhaust port of the standard non-Hanno version. I ended up selling the Hanno because it couldn’t match the power of the modified .61 long stroke. In time, I had three like that and they were all awesome. BTW, I had the ABC version.

Rex, would one of the .61's happen to be a Hanno Special?  If so, I would be interested.

Make a post on RCU and RCG Classic Pattern Forums about the .61 long strokes. . .
