RE: revo 2.5 question
Yes the pro.15 engine will fit the revo mount, all traxxas engines use the same engine mount bolt pattern.But,the .15 carb is a rotary carb and you would have to modify the throttle linkage + the revo would be underpowerd with the .15. Not worth the trouble IMO.
Not to mention the .15 is side exhaust...

RE: revo 2.5 question
why not trade the .15 in for a 2.5 or even a 3.3?
that wont even be fun to drive with a .15.......

RE: revo 2.5 question
Ok so put the 15 on ebay and get a 2.5 or 3.3. Side exhaust is terrible, you'd hate tobuy one just so you can use that wimpy engine. It's also going to be tricky making a side exhaust work on a revo.
