.21 t-maxx motor

[Vincemaxx119]

I dont know how new or old this is but I heard two days ago that some company(forgot their name)made a .21 that bolts directly onto the t-maxx chassis. I'm pretty mad. I mean, after you spend alot of money for a .21 conversion kit that comes with a bunch of parts to make a larger engine fit, they come out with a .21 that bolts directly to the stock chassis. I wonder if it's any good?

Ofna is coming out with a .21 small block. Its not out yet. Other than that I do no know of any .21 small blocks.

which conversion kit do you have? I am thinking of getting one.

It's the dynamite conversion kit. Its pretty wicked, came with a .26 and unofficially made my truck 1/8 scale. It's the same length and width as the savage.

Vince,

The longer chassis is better for a 21. A 21 on a stock truck would just flip over backwards, plus be really unstable at high speed.

I beleive it's the Picco .21 mid block. There are threads all over in here about it. Most of the prices for it seem to be in the $180's-$200's.


I agree with scott. You almost need the longer chassis to keep the front down.

I have the XTM conversion. I really like it better than the first one I bought that gratefully a BMW destroyed.
