Personally, I'd either buy the Savage Truckzilla kit & get a Sirio .27. or I woulds just by an EK4...
 
To put the 70 engine out of the EK4 into a savage I think would not work very well. The engine is a 70 Heli engine and it has a fairly big foot print. The tranny for the Savage is geared way different then the EK4 and more then likely will not be able to handle the torque of the engine. I have seen the EK4 in action and it is a monster when it comes to torque. From a stand still it can spin the tires on pavement. But I also seen when something breaks that it is a pig to work on.
