Default ENGINE REPLACEMENT FOR INFINITY

I have a INFINITY with the .18 CXP engine (I think it's the CXP) it came with the truck, and I'd like to give it more POWER! Juice! GO Fast! ZIP! BURN RUBBER!!! Anyways U get the idea SOOOO, will the vertex .21 engine (redcat) bolt right in with no problems?? Is there any BIGGER options??? Will there be lots of modifications to do??? Thankyou for your advise on this brilliant people........................Tommy

One sad thing here is, THERE IS NO SUPPORT But if you go to the redcat forums there will always be someone there to help out. But to answer your question is no it wont bolt up without modification's, like redrill hole's for it to bolt the mounts to.

But here you will find more support, it's the redcat forums.

Get the os cvrx .18, its a direct fit and has a ton of power. the big blocks will take some work to get going not to mention you will need a new clutch bell, clutch and other parts to get it going, redrilling of the chassis. its possible. my buddy rc danny on the redcat forum did it to his volcano and put a hyper 21 8 port in it, its crazy fast and wheelies on demand.

Exceed-rc targets beginner car drivers compared to HPI, which cost an arm and leg. Upgrade can be done simply adding a better engine.
