What the difference between a 69730 and a 60363 rotaderp?
I see no obvious difference in the description.

look more closely
(69730 is goverend at 3800rpm the other at 3600)
[nothing you couldn't change/adjust yourself.. still that's the only difference in the description]

Thanks!

I believe the 3800 rpm version is California compliant for emissions... Got a little charcoal canister on the gas tank Though that might be a totally different one.

One contains pixies, the other gremlins.

nope, the california version is the 69727

Item for sale outside California only – please refer to item 69727 for California compliant model.

Maybe I've been out of the game too long?

The 60363 is the Hemi model.
The folks at HF will tell you there is no difference.
The 730 models should have like an RTC 6 or RTC 9 Head or something.

I think the new Non-hemis Have the bigger valves too now, but don't quote me on this stuff.

 

[Hellion]

I wonder who gets the original credit for discovering the 60363 has a hemispherical combustion chamber?

The hemi has other superficial differences; a different shape to the gas tank (has "finger grooves" by the filler neck), a larger gas cap and of course the cast aluminum valve cover.

Differences I found with the hemi head motor is it comes with a flat top piston, has a 27mm int valve and a 25mm exhaust valve and the hemi (60363) engine can use any of the Honda / Clone 6.5 hp cams....Its not restricted to the 69730 predator cam.

I made the 200 mi Rt to HF. 1st time ever to one.
Do they always have a sign outside that says everything must go, or is this one going belly up?
I called ahead, and they had one left in stock. I ended up with a 730.
I checked the aisles, they had a few of the larger ones, but no 212's besides the one they held for me.

 

[Whitetrashrocker]

I thought the same Joe. I saw the sign outside but I didn't see anything else in the means of closing or clearance or nuthin.

 

[bob58o]

Does it say RTC - "X" somewhere on the head? Near the valve cover.

I think the RTC 6 heads come with the 27mm / 24mm and automotive style split keepers. I think they use 5mm valves instead of 5.5mm.

Bobs has a lot of info on the different Predator heads.

I don't know. It's not even out of the box yet.

Senior Bob, I did about 300 miles of shopping today, with about 8 stops.
I got through the door just about dark, made dinner, and everything is just gonna have to wait until tomorrow.

I'm about to get all Functional Artist and go to bed!

Oh Cooommeee Oonnnn!!!!!

What's in the box?

 

[Bbqjoe]

A rotaderp Bob. It's a rotaderp in the box.

The more prudent question to ask would be, what am I going to do with it?

 

[bob58o]

I don't care what you do with it. I actually hope it's a Smart Car with 22's powered by a snowblower.

Open it up, take the head off, then the side cover. I guess some of these have plastic cam gears.

Why the heck did you buy it then?

Just to say you bought it the normal way, like us pros?
Guess you gotta buy yerself a go kart now. Build it around the engine.

And yes, there's always a liquidation sale going on at HF. You should see the junk mail flyers, FINAL MARKDOWN, URGENT BLOWOUT and GRAND OPENING (somewhere).
Each and every one is geared towards the first time customer...
