will the axial .28 engine fit in the revo? what will it take to put in?,motor mount,header,etc. is this a good motor?

I've heard good things about that engine, but have never had one myself.

From an installation standpoint, I'm sure you'd need the big block conversion kit for it, other than that, you should be OK.

I've seen a mach 26 shoe horned into one. It took a BB kit and some elbow grease to get it in though.

I'll post a link to the photo and build thread since it is from another forum.

Geez, that thing is all engine now! Wonder how it performed, looks really tail-heavy.

^looks like they used the new era kit, which lifts and leans the motor to a major angle so you can use a pullstart or rotostart with it.

I recommend using the qoncepts big block kit for the revo, available at qoncepts.com
it is not possible to use a pull or roto start with it, but I use a hand held bump starter, and thats the best way I have found to start my engines. No more killing one way bearings all the time.

other than that, yes, you can get that axial into your revo, i would go with the qoncepts kit for durability.
