I see a few threads where people want to put it in there traxxas rigs and that xtm rates it at .85hp or something close to that. which to me seems like alot. a go cart with 5hp and weighs 60 times more with a person on it and does 30 seems like that should make a little rc car FLY!
I think they were selling this engine back in 2000. I don't think it was anything special. Judging by the condition of the vehicle, I'd be surprised if it ran without grenading. Before I'd buy any parts, I'd disassemble the engine to see if it's rusted up inside.
