Default Cen Racing Are You There?

yeah i was gonna put it in my savage but that would be no fun, i mean i know it would hold up and it's no challenge just droping something in without some modification, but putting it in the mt2 would be a perfect project truck and the engine is race legal so there you go almost a perfect truck.the only problem is getting the engine. tower hobbies carry's them but there outta stock and the dude i contacted hasn't responded yet.

INSANE POWER . 2.9 H.P. form a sirio. i think it's the 27 XL engine, i may be wrong.they also make a 3.0 H.P engine .that's just crazy power.OOOOOOOOOOOOO i smell a new project coming on!

Default If you are buying it from a "guy"!

You had better see it first! as far as I can tell there not even out yet and they as you saw are going for $389! I would be pretty suspicious of anyone selling it for $189 less!

Also unless the MT2 has steel drive train components on it or available for it I would think twice about putting an engine like that in it! The tranny gears,spur gear CVD's and drive shafts would have to be able to take the extra power!

hey CENRACING do you think the mt2 will be able to handle a sirio 2.9HP engine?i think i can get it for around $200. But my question is will it hold up, like will the chassis be able to handle the power.thanks
Thats hardcore. I am not going to lie. No MT out there will be able to handle that kind of power without having issues here and there. Though MT2 does have all metal drivetrain out of box, you will still chew up spur gears, bent a CVD,..etc from time to time.

this is the link to the engine he has. I guess this would be a good way to find the limit of endurance on the mt2, if there is one.Not to mention kick some real booty on the track.i think i might have to create a custom wheelie bar for it and i will probly have to upgrade the steering servos. i think i might send it's pics and description to some of the rc mags when i get done.it might take me a while to get it done though.what do ya'll think?
