Cant go wrong with a SS motor. Steve builds a strong motor...... i know mine runs quite nice in my mono [X(]


btw.. this isnt a 48" Challenger you are wanting to run 60+ with is it? Theres alot of Mono's out there that are unstable enough in the 50's...

I like M&D's, they just released a new cast head that is killer, you can't go wrong with the QD's ether but you do need some motor knowledge to keep them at their best.

If you are after a 60 inch hull why not install a replica 39cc blata engine. They come complete with a water pump and clutch. You can get them complete with engine mounts, rubbers, tee nuts to screw straight into your engine rails, also with a walbro carb for $800.00 AU. I don't know if anyone in the states do ä set up like that but they do in aus.
