Status: offline 		I like the Novarossi and RB engines. Get any .12 3 port engine if you plan on racing. 5 port engines are harder to tune, and are not ROAR legal. Right now I'm using the Mugen MT 12 in my NTC3 and am very happy with its performance.

Status: offline 		the screws that come with the kit arnt so bad. its the allen drivers. if you have a good set of tools, the stock screws are fine. what are your intentions with the car? racing or bashing? that is a big factor in deciding on an engine. Also - what is your budget? the engines you list - some are less than a 100.00 others are over 300.00
