man.. thats nice, but see on this project i want to be able to do it with a .12 high revving engine, just maximize the porting, 30% nitro, highest gearing, and suspension parts. possible? i dont really care about the torque, as long as hit can hit it in 2 football field lengths

1. hardened cvds for the front and back. The stock dog bones will snap due to too much power
2. hardened middle shafts
3. clutch bell, fly wheel that will fit, or a complete centax cluch for engine
4. depending on motor and/or motor mount, you may need to do some dremeling to fit new motor, or you may have to buy upgraded chassis.
5. upgarde brake disk
6. HPI sway bars are a joke.
7. lower the ride height by removing shock collars and use stiffer springs, or upgrade to adjustable shocks.
8. manifold and exhaust to fit new motor.
That's a lot of work and money and not even get close to the performance of a RRR, G4, mugen or the likes. Trust me, I've done it too. The car does handle well in parking lot conditions.

just go for the big block
there is a thread on rc universe about putting big blocks in 1/10th scalers
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_82..._1/key_/tm.htm
read about the big block .15 that might be a option for you if you can find one in descent shape
here is a pic of my ntc3 before i put the foams on it
thanks
