u probably need bigger engine mounts from newera.com

You do relieze that engine is for 1/8 scale buggies right? thats going to be pretty overpowered in a 1/10 stadium truck.

Something like this would be more ideal for a firestorm. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXRUN8&P=0.

http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXHLV7&P=ML This engine is a direct fit.(I think)The other engine will need a rotary carb and a big block conversion kit.

Thanks I think this may be more of what I am looking for. And is there really such a thing as being "over powered" lol? Does anybody know what the factory stock motors porduce for power? I was thinking of going with more power and the getting a different clutch bell for a higher top end speed. so the car would be just as peppy down low but really rip at top speed. what do you think?
Thanks

by all means go for it dude
i don't think there is such a thing as overpowered ST's man.[>:]

Dude you will blow apart your diff with that but go for it

dude. at os tz .18 would rippp. it would be hard to control that. ok heres a vif of it in a truck. mann it would be cool tho
