Default Same olnew nova .28 motor

Haven't run my lay2 in a couple of years, wanna put back on the road. Is the nova .28 a good motor for the lst2 and will it be a drop-in or will I have to do some mods to make it fit. Not racing just just bash and crash. With all this snow here, I need to put my first baby back in action. Thanks for any responses good or bad

it should drop in as long as it is a pull or roto start,is the motor new or used cause a picco.28 would do the trick and the piston an sleeve an rod is pretty reasonable priced as for the nova.28 never seen one in LST just buggies an onroad but dont see why it wouldnt run good

I always liked this video:

EDIT - I can't find it.. I think it's a vid from the same guy as below, but it just shows the truck revving and revving til it just flips over out of control.. Pretty funny.. Maybe somebody else can find it..

This one looks good too:

My 2 engines of choice are the LRP .30 X spec, or the Picco pullstart. The Picco seems to be the most popular, very easy to tune and keep a tune.
