TO ALL:

I have removed this thread. Not for any other reason than it was headed down a path that was not beneficial to the well being of the sport I love so much.

Personal attacks on a public forum will not be allowed. Please remain civil and level headed.

Please remember this is supposed to be fun.

I will be at the NATS and I will answer any question anyone has.

See you guys soon,

Dan Kane

The original thread got out of line.... OUCH!

This is what is currently published in the AMA Pylon rules and regulations section about what can be removed and replaced on a stock engine.

Engine: A two-stroke cycle, glow ignition, reciprocating-piston internal combustion engine. For purposes of events requiring stock or commercially available engines and parts, the “engine” is defined as the complete unit, ready to run, needing only propeller, fuel, and starting voltage; except that the following parts may be substituted for the original parts and may come from any source:
Back plate mount
Bearings
Gaskets
Glow plug
Head and crankcase bolts
Propeller nut
Propeller washer
Remote needle valve assembly
Shutoff mechanism
