why would you want to do that? im not saying that it will be a bad engine but i bet you could buy a better one for the price they will sell for, just look at the s25 a very mediocre engine which costs a whopping £150 to buy separately

sh.28 = 3.5HP = 190 = hobbypeople.net
k4.6 = 2.9HP = 199 = towerhobbies.com

in my opinion i like the sh.28 better because it has alot more power but im not sure exactly if it drops right in?

It's a direct fit. No problem there. But 3.5 HP for the SH is a bit far from reality. And the 4.6 will more than likely be less than that too. But the numbers look great for advertising. Besides HP doesn't mean much if you don't have the torque to get you there.
Their both probably going to have about the same kind of power.

I totaly agree , I think HPI has gone really agressive with the new .28 and atleast as powerful as the SH.

Anybody know which company manufactures the K4.6 for HPI ?

i highly dout that the k 28 is as powerful as the SH. i would think 2.6hp for the k and about 3hp for the sh. but i could be proved wrong!
