If the 3.3 isn't enough motor for you, O.S. makes the .21tm that is a direct drop in, then of course there is the issue of other parts breaking!

Agreed, but from the people i know who "had" to have the OS motor they had more issues with the center diff and clutch than it was worth. And if your spending the coin on the platinum i would think you were planning on racing it, therefore the 3.3 is plenty of power.

wierd. I had a 18TM and never had any tranny problems and the center diff was fine. It held strong all race season...did I get lucky

Blackhawk, i was refering to the os 21 in the revo and the center diff, i ran the 18tm in my 2.5 revo without any problems

Really you need to say what your plans are. If you plan on racing is there a MT class? In a lot of areas this class is getting pretty small or no longer a class.

I would go with the Platinum..It has most of the hop ups that you need to race already on it..I built one up right before they announced the release of the Platinum..it would have saved me a whole bunch of money....If your going to go the Truggy route..DONT GET A HYPER ST..IT HAS TO BE THE MOST OVERATED POS on the market..and yes i did own one..
