Default OS .30VG Engine

I would like to start this thread for OS's new .30VG monster block engines. There are going to be 3 new engine:

OSMG2075 .30VG-P Non- Pullstart
OSMG2076 .30VG(P) SR Savage
OSMG2077 .30VG-X Pullstart

The engines use standard No.8 Glow Plugs and will come with a 203 air filter.
The Savage version will be for the Roto Start System just bolt it on from your old engine. These engines are designed for Monster trucks and Truggies.
I have included pics, if you have any questions please ask.

cool,
tell me if you dont mind,how does this engine compare to say the mach 26(i prepared for you to be slightly biased ) but my reason for asking is i bought a nr 28 that is a three port and while it has a ton of bottom end the mach just seems to walk away from it,though the mach seems to top out quickly where as th nr just seems to want to keep on spooling.

im very interested in this motor,ive got os's in everything i run now except my lst and when i saw this i knew it would be next.

one last thing does OS need ant other testers???....lol

thanks

The engine has insane power and when we ran it in the HPI Savage it was too
fast . I am impressed buy the performance of this new engine, and I think we set a new standard in big block performance. I was never impressed by the performance of large block engines, and the number one thing was RPM's the engines were not as fast as a .21 or even a .18, and with truggies
you need both so I will say that we made a kick A$$ engine that will make every one happy

i felt the rtr25 savage was pretty quick out of the box,until i ran a lst how would you compare it to the lst?(if you have ran one)if its as impressive as you say then this will be my next motor ive run a modded 12cv,tr,and i just got done insalling a vzb v-spec in my mayhem my buddy has a 18cvrx in his tnx so far i must say i like this new power kick OS is on keep up the good work.

in my onroad car i have the tr i was getting ready to buy a nsr12 for it then i saw the 12tz well the order is in and its on its way,looks like ill be OS powered from here on out

thanks for taking the time to answer my questions

do you know when we might be seeing this engine released?

right now at our track,in monster truck anyway the lst hands down is the truck to have to compete.

2 weeks ago there was a sponsored driver who came down with his revo and dropped a OS18tz in it it looked and sounded like a stadium truck on steroids,dont get me wrong it was fast and spooled forever and a day but he was still pulled on the straight by a bone stock lst(no engine mods pipe,etc.)
and thats running 20% trinity platnium the revo was runnin byrons 30%.

You should seee the engines on the market at the end of OCT.
The LST is one bad truck bone stock but wate untill you drop a .30VG in it.

The TM.18 in my Revo is fast,,I dont get "Pulled" by any other "Production MT" on the track period,Truggies have me I admit,My truck comes off the track at 280-290 I have it tuned that way to get every ounce of power out of it,People always ask what engine is in the truck,they cant beleive just a stock TM.18 but thats what it is.Ive thought about a TZ but the TM is great.I could only imagine bolting one of these .30`s in a Revo or Truggy looks like lap times are going to get faster everywhere
