    Status: offline     		Actually a #8 plug isn`t a good choice for small block engines as the LC4 is more designed for them . Also O.S. plugs are shorter then most other plugs and changes the timing which I have found doesn`t work that great except in O.S. engines or other engines with same thickness button . I run all my small blocks with either McCoy 59 or O`Donnell 77 plugs .

    the OS #8 IS designed for small blocks. It's designed for OS small blocks.

    you should use a LONG plug (McCoy, Fox, etc) in a non-OS engine.

    Sorry, Dawman, I only saw this post, not the one before it saying what I said

    Listen to Dawman.

    no problem , but the #8 was designed for O.S. engines for 1/8 but will work in O.S. small blocks .

    I know I'll get a zillion answers for this. What is the best type of ball cup to use? I'm having a hell of a time keeping cups from
    popping off. My best luck has been with the gray Losi type. Thanks

    Status: offline     		Ok so I am soo stressed and anxious cuz after bolting everything up, my ae.15 wont fire up for the life of me, I was wondering if someone could point me towards a good eng for an xxx-nt rtr that will run me less than $100....

    And I thought a rear exhaust eng, is what I would need,but the origional eng from the xxx-nt is side exhaust???
