alright the most powerful smallblock WAS the .18CVRX but that was beaten by the O.S. .18 TM/TZ, the wasp was fast when it came out, now the CVRX would run circles around it

I don't know if the O.S. is a drop-in engine for your rusty but I would recommend. I have several friends who own O.S. engines and they love them. I'm thinking about getting one myself.

Yes, it will.
assuming you get the correct crankshaft configuration. I THINK the Rusty is a long-shaft engine, but don't hold me to it.
