Default Engine swap

Hey all. New guy here again. How hard is it to do an engine swap on a "TMAXX" ? Say a slightly larger engine or just a different engiune?

Thanks,
Art

depends, you got an old 1.5 or the new 2.5 they require different shafts. if you have the 1.5 depending on what engine you buy. megatech makes a .16 and hotboddies has an .18 that if you order the right one is a direct swap. if you use an O.S. you will have to cut the shaft. The new 2.5 Siro has an 18 just out that is a direct swap even allowing you to use the ez start.
