Default 4.6 Genesis conversion into CT4S or Magnum NX? Possiable?

Is it possiable to have the .46 Genesis motor installed into the CT4S car or the Magnum NX truck....YEs these vehicles are fast as it is....Just curious....

If so what would I need to do to have them installed and run proper.......

Thanks....

Also where to order a few parts for the CT4S.....need a arm which I found on the CEN site but also a muffler.......cant find it....

Thanks Guys!

I don't believe you would really want that for two reasons, one being the size and weight alone of the NX76, the other is the motor is not a high rpm screamer, but rather a low rpm stump puller! LOL. Not a good engine for an on-road car.

It would be pretty sweet to see that engine in a magnum or FunFactor! BUT it's true it is a torquey beast and not so much for the upper end. and It is heavy. You would really be better off with a .28 or even an OS .30 or something if you want big block action. I would imagine it would take some modding to make that .46 fit in a magnum. It would in no way be a drop in

But always remember... ANYTHING is possible if you have the time and money!

The .46 is engineerred for truck which needs torque. If you want more speed/accleration on teh CT4S, you should go with a good .21 engine.
