The .18tz is a serious motor. Probably would have to go with a medium block .21 or the sirio .23 to beat that! I am not sure on the prices, but I can find out.

i can get a starterbox w/2 gell cells and a wasp .28 with mount, header, flywheel, ect. for 200. the motor had about a half gallon through it. would that be a good motor for my revo?

You need a conversion kit as well. I would not buy a used nitro, or it must be from someone i knew.

The .28 would rip the revo apart(diffs, tranny would be on the endangered species list). I wouldn't even consider this motor for a Revo. I don't even run a motor that big in my Lightning Stadium, which can put down a lot more power than a Revo.

No HP ratings, but these are somewhat useless anyways on most motors, as everyone uses a different method to rate their motors.

I know the hyper engines run very well and also hold a tune very well. I will strap the .27 into my truggy and break it in this weekend if I get the time. I wil let you know how it goes!

Nothing wrong with the stock motor. IMO, it is one of the best smallblock motors out there. If you break it in properly, it will run strong, long! The RDLogics high end pipe wakes it up quite a bit as well. I have an o.s. tm .18 in my Revo. O.S. simply rocks, if you ask me. The best running, easiest to tune engines out there. The O.S. needs taller gearing to make the speed, though.

The TZ is a turbo head and glow plug.
The tm is not just your #8 O.S plug HOT
