These Mach motors are one of my favorite budget motors. And If you get then slightly modded, it makes this motor more linear / drivable.

Heres a link for ya !!!

if you have the eight, you will need to get stock engine mounts for the pro kit. i wouldn't be suprised if there arent guys in here that have them lying around after going to the one peice engine mount. i don't run losi anymore or i would have had some for ya!

the big and square is the one that everybody wants, thats a one peice. here is what it should look like. i prefer the one peice as most if not all racers run.
