BKLYN, I'm Home...
I have a Marder with a Zenoah G230. I was thinking of modded it. Should i do a head kit or get a new motor? I was looking at the 27cc head kits but i'm really still new to all of this so don't know which direction to go. Any ideas fellas?

best bang for the buck is a gp290 with the 668 carb and clutch package.
best reliability is the g270rc ,and this is a step down in power from the gp290, but is of better quality.
ive had cy engines last a long time as well but in general a zenoah is top quality.

if you are going to run at floyd, you will need more than a stock engine. even using an esp engine it will be rough if u want to be top dawg or highly competitive. but since u are new to this u may want to learn to tune and drive ur car with the current engine first. after ur 100% confident with the feel of the car and ur tuning , u can move on to the wild side!

I couldn't have said it better.
 
i have a two hot motors for you to check out in the market place both of them have done well at fbf
 
ok buts nothings wrong with one of these used motors its not like they have gallons thru them there just broken in and heat cycled so i can drop them in my cars if i have a problem at FBF. you just bought a used car with a used motor so whats wrong with used. and my used motors will spank any headkit you buy i can guarantee you'll never beat me with that headkit.
