If it was not reaching the proper RPM range, then sure it can cause it not to shift. Do you feel the problem with the broken clutchbells has been solved??

Well if the flywheel was out of balance then sure it will shorten the life of the engine!! And I would be surprised if the bellwould lokk "new" after 5-6 tanks might get "some' signs of use, but that would be normal. Keep us posted!

Oh, Almost any big block hat has a pilot shaft style clutch, however there are not many engines with this displacement. This is a heavy truck, but if you really want to change motors then look at any 4.6cc monster truck motor with pull start and rear exhaust, like the Ofna Force .28 4.6cc:

Or even the Corsa 4.8cc .28, CEN has gone to this engine manufacturer in the the RTR trucks and Buggies
http://www.corsa-racing.com/28engine.html
I have not installed any other engine in my Genesis or Nemesis, bever found the need.
Hope that helps some
