Do you have a starter box?
Do you have any pipes?
What is your budget?
The B2 is a cheap well made engine but it works best with an $80 pipe and you must have a starter box.
I would recommend the Hyper .21 engine. It comes as pull start and bump start and work good with a $35 ofna or dynamite 086 pipe. Last time I looked the engine was $120 but I will say that a pull start engine will open you up to a whole other set of issues and can be a royal PITA.

i owned the Nvision 521R just 2 weeks ago. i admit it does have more power than the b5 in mid and high but imo not the low. i had nothing but problems tuning the nvision, it was rediculus.i got one that i had to install the button and ls needle from amain. i couldnt get it to run under 270 degrees and usually wanted to go at around 285! i raced a b5 with it and took him off the line but the b5 was still slightly rich. i think its compareable to the b5, with a slightly faster spin up speed. (which i think was its best feature) the fuel economy was atrocious though! i wish i would of got a werks in the first place over the nvision. so far the b2 has never got over 230 degrees. cooler running motors last longer in my book. The head size on the werks motors are considerably larger than the nvision as well

+1. I had a Hyper 7 that I got for my young lad to drive. Engine is not the most powerfull but had more that enough for a club racer who was learning to drive and tune. Easy to tune with a huge tunning window and tough as an old boot. Seen them on some online stores for around $80.

Novarossi makes the best engines. Most engines are nova based. Back on point...i would go with the p5 nova. Amazing price and excellent power. Btw Houston's engine service is top notch. I would also recommend purchasing monty.'s bench break in service. He's also very helpful with tuning your engine. Can't get that from tower or Amain.

hmm
Well what happended to the engine it came with? I most likely died quickly. Every hyper engine I've worked on over the years was terrible. I say go ahead and get a race motor if you plan on racing. You will need a starter box but it will last a long time. For your next buggy and engine too. You may need a different engine mount that is lower. but you can use the pipe and header. Nota big deal for starting out in racing.
