new motor questions
I am in the market for a new motor for my GST 7.7.
what motors will give me good power and bolt up to the truck?
I was thinking the hpi 5.9 cause i can get it for 200.00 is that a good motor?
Will it bolt up to the transmission?
I am on a budget also so any other suggestions will be appreciated.

RE: new motor questions
You should get it. The cen 7.7 motor is trash. that 5.9 will move the GST pretty well. My buddy has one and it (7.7) all ways has engine trouble even when it was new .The rest of truck is solid.
