What is the OS equivalent of this engine. I am trying to locate an exhaust gasket as well as the bolts that hold the manifold in place. I just got this car. After about 10 tanks, the exhaust bolts managed the get loose and I lost one of the bolts along with the exhaust gasket. I guess this is the price for buying RTR, I should have checked all bolts/screws before runing. I know better now. Anyway, any info on OS parts equivalent is appreciated. Thanks.

Check tower for HPI gaskets for the manifold. They are the cheap, work well, and you get like 3-5 in a pack... As for the hardware, this is a common problem. Take one of those metric cap-screws to a hardware store and buy 6-8 (it's 2 or 3mm I can't remember which)(need spares) slightly longer units, the one that aren't fully threaded (shouldered) are fine. Now they can be threaded through the header and nuts put on the outside. Those headers are so soft that the threads usually don't last long. Use lock-tite on the nuts too.

good idea, i never thought of that.
