Nitro to gas engine swaps in the future
 
Hello everyone,

Is there any future conversion kits that would allow you to take your nitro buggy and replace it with a gas engine? I have the 1/10 exceed (Redcat's Shockwave) and would love it if this was something that might be considered in the future. So tell me what you think?

Just get a 1/5th scale in the future and you will not regret anything

Im not positive, but I dont think they even make gas engines that are small enough to fit on a 1/10 scale chassis? I'd agree with 7M and just invest in a 1/5 to begin with, and go from there.. ;)
<font size="4">BUT</font>!! If you happen to do a franken-mod and put a gas engine in a 1/8 or 1/10 vehicle, PLEASE take pix and video and post em here for all of us to see!!! :D

Mickstix,

I would love to. but I'm not mechanically inclined to take on such a task. Thanks for our input.
