hmm, well u could try amain, but with the added postage and stuff. its probably better just to buy it in the UK.
And just remember, its an italian engine, so its gonna take around 2 gallons for it to fully wake up, and show its true colours.
an ofna 086 Pipe really makes this engine scream.

Have fun

well you could always drop his mach in your savage, the mach is very good motor, and in a savage it will shine, its good in a lst, but would be even better in a savage so that would take his, but i 2nd the picco. i got one in mine and love it.

yup most engines from .21 -.32 fit in our mounts its all the same size for fitting mills not so sure bout mounting holes, i belive HPI new k5.9 even fits,

you could also change up the gearing

change up the gearing? im currently running a 15t clutch bell and 49t spur......will my clutch bell fit on the mach then? cos the losi bell is completely different ie. has a double tset of teeth on it in two levels.

yes it will thats just for his 2 speed, thats why you 15t CB is way too small for top end, did your kit come with a second CB probally 18t that'll help loads in the speed department also a smaller spur like 47 or 46

So, the larger the clutch bell (more teeth) and the smaller the spur gear (less teeth) the better the top end?
& vice versa.........smaller clutch bell and larger spur will increase what? acceleration bottom end?

yup you got it, and if you want more speed with out a new mill, you can always pick up a 3 speed, and not tell so when you bang you second shift point and go flying past him you'll want to frame his face,
