i have the redcat hurracane with the 27 infinity motor. thecar will start and run for about 10 min or so then it just goes dead and will not start until it cools down. i think that the piston and the sleeve needs replaced becouse i have over heated before. the motor is only a month old. well i wount to know if any one knows where to get the piston and sleeve for this motor. or if it could be something else wrong with it. im a first timer but lurning.

You may be running too lean. Either that or you have an airleak somewhere in the motor. First thing I'd try is sealing up around the carb with some RTV sealant. Then if it's still over heating seal the back plate and around the cooling head. I remember someone posted a nice guide with pictures where the guy walked you through sealing the engine, if anyone still happens to have that link could you post it?
