I'm also able to get a K10 but I've heard that's more of a budget engine, ain't it?

Thanks,

The X10 will pull your truggy around just fine. Of course the B10 will be a little more powerful, but the X10 will work just fine. The one thing you will most likely want to do is pick up a 198 header as the kit always comes with a 192 header. This will give you the extra bottom end you need in a truggy.

The K10 engines do make pretty good power for the price, but they are Taiwanese engines and the quality and the carb just aren't there like the Nova based engines.
