I have a old novarossi I'm rebuilding for a Youngblood 20, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I might be able to get bearings for it. Also if anyone could tell me any history or interesting facts about it that would be cool too!1000001811.jpg1000001810.jpg1000001809.jpg1000001806.jpg1000001805.jpg1000001812.jpgsomeone put a glow plug in the carb to block off what I assume would be the low speed needle, which I thought was funny.
 
probably not worth the money to fix that up. The piston and sleeve look beyond repair and there are no spares available.
 
Drew,

I may have a few of those engines in my vintage collection box.
I will look 👀 for them tomorrow for you. You can have them if
I still have them.

Thanks,

Mark Sholund

Bearings,
Boca Bearings
Measure what came out of the engine and give em a call.
 
Thanks for the help guys I'll get them measured and try boca, and I would appreciate that Mark! I know it's nothing special I just have a soft spot for the vintage stuff figured it'd be fun to try and fix up
 
That looks to be an old short stroke 4 port to me. I have not seen one of those since the mid 90s. My old bearing chart says 607 and 2513 for those.

That's where the main needle would go, low needle on other side. What OS carb is that 2D or 4E?1
 
Jon,

Would you have bearings for a Novarossi-21 35+ engine?

Thanks For Checking In Advance,

Mark Sholund
 
That is a NovaRossi C21, they were Nova's first engine released in the mid 80's (1984/85). After the Rossi brothers parted & Novarossi emerged, sad how things worked out with both Novarossi & the original Rossi Engines no longer in business. Both companys produced some of the best racing engines you could buy. Still quite a few C21 engines around on Ebay.

Got it all put back together, Thanks for the help everyone! I even kept the glow plug needle block off for good luck.😂
