I am currently using an Associated box, and will try my dual motor Ofna box tonight. If that doesn't work, a freind will let me borrow his 1/8 scale Ofna box with the bigger motor.

Needless to say, I can see how it would be hard on the conrod bushings on break-in.

Same here.

I've put a litre through it so far and it still sticks at TDC.
