    All I can say is it fits carb/blocks with a 10mm neck.

    Maybe you can check on OS Engines web page to see what the size of the neck is?

    The OS 10E-R Carb neck is 11mm OD, and the base is 10mm OD, so it will fit.
    If you get it, let me know if it will enable us to go lower on the gearing with the CV-R. Peace

    The AVM intercooler is a new product that is just now hitting the market.
    The idea tho has been around for some time as a little speed secret for running long mains that may last up to an hour. I have saw them made out of anything from Real car brake tubing to being machined from aluminum and yes they do work. Ask anyone that uses one that has to restart their engine after 45 minutes of non stop running.

    i think i remember people talking about them putting the trx carb onto the o.s. wouldn't this mean that the carbs are the same size? are you sure the intercooler wouldn't fit?

    Your right jp, it will work because the base is 10mm, and the neck is 11mm. I got confused with the MotorSaver post. Peace

    I have the Intercooler from TRXPARTS. I have not been able to do any conclusive testing though. I let you know when I know. One thing, I have the Megatech M16 and RR vented flywheel and there is only a paper-width space between the flywheel and the intercooler. Scary!!!

    Scarab,
    how well does the vented flywheel work? (how many degrees cooler is the engine?)
    I love the smell of nitro fumes in the morning!

    No clue on the temp savings but it can't hurt.
