XTM 24.7 on savage
Has anyone put a xtm 24.7 on the savage, the new on with the bigger cooling head. I have put them on tmaxx's before but have never heard of anyone on the savage. I am waiting on the hobby shop to get my savage ss in and was considering putting the 24.7 on it without even trying the hpi .25, since I have heard nothing good about this engine yet.

Yes you can,
And yes it has been done. As for the "HPI" .25 it is made by Ofna and is the same as the Force .25 with a different color head and different carb. I have a Force .25 and the only problem I had with it is the break-in time and the pull start. Break-in took almost a gallon and even now it is difficult to pull although it starts in one or two pulls. It runs great and has a ton of power.But, seeing how you already have a great engine I would sell the HPI .25 and get some money back!
