Dynamite 28 big block motor

[matts6887]

I want to swap out my current dynamite 19 on my Revo and go to the .28 big red dynamite I just bought. What I don’t know is what all is involved in moving the transmission forward to make room for the bigger motor? Where do I make new holes or how big do I make the current ones?

I dont have a Revo, but this should help get you started.

I've never done it myself but I've read enough on it to know that you're going to need a big block engine mount.

Well I do know about needing the big block conversion kit to install it. I have the traxxas big block conversion kit I just got

I have a revo 3.3 and I just got the .28 big red myself. I will post pics on it when I start working on it and setting it up. I also want electric start on it as well. I already started cutting the chassis to move things forward. I know I have to mod a lot of stuff to get it to work. I will do a more detail post on what I have done to it.
