SH makes XTM engines... thats basically the stock engine that comes with the xc, except the one you are showing is SIDE EXHAUST. You'll need a new header, thats all.

According to Racernine's X-Cell, I would go with the STS .12 for an X-Cell engine. That's just what I'D get, just a suggestion!

Yea bout he would need a starter box, and a radio with EPA and he'd have to bend his linkage. The SH or O.S. if you want to race.

You dont need a starter box, just get a starter for an airplane, then get the hobbico wheel that goes on that. its like 30 bux all together.

The STS is by far faster than the SH, but not faster than the .12 TZ.

Hey thanks guys. I am not going to be racing just bashing and the engine i choose will be for a Nitro evader to bash with as there are no tracks where i live[:o]. I thinh i am going to go with a OS 18 cvrx but i am not sure. If there are any other engines that would bolt in to the evader and give me the same speed and durability please post them i would probably rather an 18 cause they have a bit more power.

The XTM .18 a OS CV-R .18 are almost the same in performance. I have never seen a OS run, but from seeing videos and seeing my truck run, woah.

XTM .18 and the OS cvr .18 are night and day differences. The OS will smoke the XTM, as the xtm can only push an smaxx up to 30, whereas the OS can push it passed the 40 mph marker.

Top speed isnt a factor for me, dosen't mean didly. I want to see a OS run against my truck one day..[>:]

I can guarantee the OS will blow it away. The XTM has no low end compared to the OS engine. Your truck would look like a fool.

RE: X cellerator engine
 
Wait till you see my low end though....
I can't even keep my wheels from spinning, its hard to do a top-speed pass now.
