Hi guys, i want to convert my nitro savage F4.6 to a 4-stroke, any idea what kind of engine I can use for this conversion.
I appreciate your help thanks.
 
Dont think there is going to be any kind of 4 stroke that will work on a land based MT. Most 4 strokes are designed to be used in airplanes and really dont adapt well to a land based rig due to lower RPMs and airflow issues for cooling.
 
I seen some videos of a savage with a 4 stroke engine but i don't know which engine is it.
And i think they come with a cooling fan.
 
The only 4 stroke I have seen for a car was an OS FS-26-CX II and I do no think they make it anymore. You "could" cram something esle in there but you would have a hard time with gearing and cooling.
 
I've had 4 strokes on airplanes, but the purpose is to spin a bigger prop with more power.
It's just not worth it for anything on wheels.
