the 18 cv-rx comes with a really good air filter so you dont need a different one, and that one that you posted will not fit cause the carb inlet has the same size as a big block.. yes the stock manifold will work on this engine and yes that glow plug igniter will work, they are universal

Does anyone here run the O.S .18 CV RX engine? If so, I have a few questions. What is the width of the carb, and what air filter do you recommend? I've got this one, but will it fit on to the O.S?

Also, will the stock MT2 pipe and manifold work okay with this engine? I will order a tuned pipe soon, but for now I'll have to make do with the stock pipe.
And finally - Will the purple HPI glow plug igniter work with the O.S? I'm assuming they are pretty much universal.
Thanks.
Thanks for that! I only ask because I'm about to order the O.S engine (and lots of other bits to go with the MT2) as I am now VERY BORED with the T-15 engine.
