They work really good. Mines in the post office right now. I'll take a pic when I have it. I'd still like to find a Dynamite flavored one though!

Clutch tool arrived! It looks like QS Components are serious about their product. Nice to see! Here's a couple photos. It will be a while before I'm ready to use it to install an RB Innovations cooling clutch plate. I'll post some pics on the process.

Just curious... what's everyone got against the piston stoppers? I've used them for years on various 2 strokes without damaging a piston, and they're rather cheap too
The problem when using a piston stop is if you really need to tighten a nut or bolt really tight. Is you will force the needle bearings into the rod or crank pin and will make inverted speed bumps. The cages can only take it so much of getting the needles stomped back into them before they break a cage. Seen it a lot with the boat engines we build and this is why we advise against NOT using them on our stuff. Same with holding the crank on the ignition side or output side ant trying to tighten the nut or bolt on the opposite side. You are now putting the twisting motion through the crank and can twist a crank. You need to tighten on the end the nut or bolt is and not hold the opposite side while doing it.

I see.... this is surprising to me. It must be an exclusive to the rc hobby thing. Learn something new every day.

Yep, they did a good job.
I have, and have used, my piston stop to work on engines. But it always makes me nervous. As Todd mentioned, you can damage your engine if you don't use caution.
