Default Which to buy O.S .12, .15, .18??? help plz guys

Hey guys, ive got a GV-Great Vigor (dunno if u guys have herd of them i think they might b a aussie brand) any way the old motor is getting old and worn and im going to upgrade to a new engine, ive decided on a o.s but im not sure wich one to get either the .12 cvxr, 15.cvxr or the .18cvxr version. i would like the .18cvxr version but i dont know if my drive terrian will be able to handle it? also i am sort of new to these things (been using them for about 3 months now) and i was wondering truthfully if you think aswell as the car would i be able to handle it? can anyone help. also will i need to get a new set of gears, clutch? and will it just drop straight in?
Thanks in advance,

i have a .15 cvrx and i LOVE it very easy to tune and it has all the power i want! any of them are good but the 15 is the best balance IMHO. i have ran about 10 tanks in it and i have had 0 problems!

Yes but i dont want to have to be replacing things such as my drive terrian and tires everytime i run it, also i might want to race it so it will have to be the .12 or .15 does anyone else have either of them and would reccomend them and why?

well if you plan on racing it your going to need a .12, the .12tz may be to much for in the terms of needing a starter box and new manfolds and such
