Just curious Adam, did you weigh them compared to stock? How much more weight do they add? I like the looks of them.

Wahoo - just ordered an RXT and can't wait. Now I need to make sure I have what I need to run. For the 28 engine, do you use a cooler plug? I use OS A3s for my 18s, but thought I saw a comment about OS #8 plugs. Other than that, am I correct in assuming the RXT uses all the same stuff like fuel, glow plug ignitor, fuel filter oil, etc, etc?
Thanks!
BK

I got a rtr .....just swapping engines and pipe....I cant leave it stock...just not my style...lol
I already have the engine..almost installed it on a torpeda last night instead of getting online...I always said if I ordered a rxt-1 I would have a xtm 457 sleeve/piston waiting on it....instead I got the whole engine and a cool pipe...lol
