Default Engine question for the rs4rtr3

Can i put an .18 in it?If so,what one would be the easiest and what one would be a half way decent one?Now the gearing,it's a 2 speed and what CB and other gears would go good to get the fastest speed out of it?I'm not sure how many teeth are on any of them right now.Thanks.

I have that same car,- I put an O.S. 18 cv-r on it, and it FLIES!
That is definately what I recommend, ands it's going to be about $120
