Dont know why or how a stock motor will compared it to the modded, Not a fair comparation. What about clockworks B5 sound like a better comparation... besides driver skills make a big difference.
Back to topic.. B5/2013 on Truggy best option, keep some bucks in your pocket, I forgot, no need to replace rod after brake in, also the support from Ron is second to none. Nova are very good engines but after both engines been ready to race you will spend less with werks.
