the OS 18TM won't work. It is rear exaust, so your header will hit the rear upper chassis plate. You need the OS 18 CV-RX with rotary carb for a direct fit engine.

Well I have a few questions about the Smartech buggy as well. I also own the winner sport and Its not all that bad. Its a great project car. Thats the reason I got into the hobby anyway. I would rather build it up myself rather then buy one for 500 or more $


Anyway my question is, Will I be able 2 fit the O.S. .18TM in the car and what other things should I change about the car? I am already looking 2 buy better shocks. Also should I change the clutch, flywheel. and clutch shoe or anything else. What is a good failsafe that will fit in the car? I am also just learnig. I know a lot about cars so I look at rc cars in that aspect just on a smaller scale.

CAN NE 1 HELP????????? THANKS.
