I would get somethin better than that, the HPI 12rss motor is a direct fit, and I have it in mine and its a great motor. For alot of power, the OS .18 TZ TX would be a good motor if you have the $.

Both those motors will fit however I would choose the side exhaust one that will be a direct drop in.

if you get a re engine all yuo need is a manifold which is like 10bucks, the cvr18 is all you need and it is a se engine so you can re-use every thing

any side exaughst will most likely be a direct fit. O.S. cv-r, HPI .12ss etc. most .15s will work too
