the Integy piggyback shocks will fit with little mods http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXKVU4&P=7

put an os .18 cvrx in it, its like $100 and its much more powerful than the stock one, its the one blue posted. i have 1 in my hpi and tmaxx, its a great engine. easy to tune and start.

RE: what shox what engine and what size engine
 
yes:)but in volcano

bluecaka69 01-17-2007 04:26 PM

RE: what shox what engine and what size engine
 
no 3 speed for the volcano
but you could do 2 speed just need the 2 speed tranny and upgraded clutch bell so it doesnt bog out on startup

RE: what shox what engine and what size engine
 
might get upgrade maifold:D

Hook it up bro, i like the volcano as a single speed though, i think the 2 speed would not work well on the volcano.

123michael 01-17-2007 04:33 PM

RE: what shox what engine and what size engine
 
what would you suggest

bluecaka69 01-17-2007 04:35 PM

RE: what shox what engine and what size engine
 
i agree monster trucks dont need 2 speeds

the gearing on the redcat 2 speeds is too high, the tornado has small wheels. the volcano has nice snap as it is

would this engine work? i know its rear exhaust, but its a sweet looking piece

ehroof 01-18-2007 04:50 PM

RE: what shox what engine and what size engine
 
you would probably have a hard time routing the exhaust, i dont know if you would have the room behind the engine.
