Default which engine for my mt

Just wanted the MT guys thoughts on this. I have a mammoth that has a xtm 24.7 that lost its combustion. Since my wife knows i've got to replace the engine (don't tell her i only need a p/s) i wanted to upgrade my engine but cant afford anything over the $225.00 range. I will one day go back and replace the p/s to have and extra engine out of the 24.7, but for know want an upgrade. which one do you like and any comments or suggestions are welcome.

Its too bad that you cant go over $225. I would have recommended the RB .28 Thunder Monster. But if you are looking for a powerful torque engine, I know that OFNA Picco .26 would be a good choice. That engines snaps parts on contact! Wheelies no problem!

What about the wasp .26?

It'll save you a couple bucks too.
