    Adjust your slipper properly and you shouldn't have any drive train problems with any engine. The OS 15 is a very good engine in both the CV(x) and CV-r(x) versions. No changes would be required for these engines. It seems that just about every hobby shop on the planet carries them and parts support is also good. Where you live I would go with the OS. [/QUOTE]

    True statement. However, if you want to put all the additional power these engines make to the ground, you'll need to upgrade the clutch and the idler gear. Why waste all the extra power by soaking it up with the slipper clutch?

    So true grampi. Power=fun especially on a high traction surface.

    I know this was mentioned briefly before in the thread, but if you plan on racing, you will likely not be able to run a .15 engine. Check with your local tracks before you put one in. You'll probly need a .12.

    Ya, I know where you're at (Dubai). Iwould suspect money is NO issue

    Status: offline     		Lol, : yea i think they only allow .15's, but i think they will have a class for that or something,, cuz everyone over here's got .15's. What would be the top speed if I had a .12 o.s in my rc10gt?and top speed for the .15 o.s? Im really gonna be bashing and maybe enter a few races...

    Status: offline     		I don't know about top speed with an OS CV-X .12, But on my truck, I have a fantom 12, and my gears are stock. As of now, I can hit 50+.
