Default 3.3 sleeve in o.s .18?

I was just wondering if the p/s from the 3.3 would fit in the o.s .18tm?

It might not be as durable but its a little cheaper for me

probably not
the 3.3 is a .20 engine where the o.s. .18 is a, well, a .18 engine
so i really doubt that they are interchangeable size wise
to say nothing of the different timing and port configs

Most likely it will not fit because they are 2 totally different engines and in addition, most likely because they are 2 different sizes as well I do believe....

that's true, the .18tm engines external mounting dimensions were designed to be the same as the traxxas engines
that does not mean that the internal parts are interchangeable

Wow there is no need for that rude comment. It was a simple question. I was curious to find out the answer.
