Default NEW ENGINE

Im looking into getting this engine for my OFNA 9.5 c-hub...[link]http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLU03&P=ML[/link] Would this engine drop right in without any other parts? Can I use the the ofna engine mounts? Also I wanna get a 063 pipe to go along with it since thats what I have on my force .26 and I love the low end power it gives...thanks

I've never seen anyone have tuning problems on the hyper 8 port. It's a spectacular engine for the price.

the carb on the 8 port has crazy loose needles that have a mind of there own in those high revs. Turn themselves whichever way they see fit.
