The head appears to be aftermarket (Hard to tell cause your pics are so small). You have some upgrades as far as suspension goes. The Tmaxx is a pretty tough, and popular, truck. You can get parts for them just about anywhere. Amain Hobby, Golden Horizon just to name a few. I've got the 2.5 version myself and its a very abused and used rig. You should have plenty of fun beatin that thing up!!

Motor looks kinda like the 2.5r that my be a bit lighter in color due to some acid or strong degreaser being used to clean it. I have the same motor in my revo. It also is a bit of a faded blue due to its age and heat ranges a bit high from need of a rebuild.

Holding my 2.5R in my hand and comparing it to your pic zoomed in it looks identical bottom end and header and carb but your head is shaped different. So it may be the older regular traxxas 2.5 and not the Racing or 2.5R.

It is definitely an aftermarket cooling head.

The truck is an early model 4910.

Its the same truck i have which is a 4910. But mine had a 3.3 on it. Till i just yesterday put it in my revo which had the 2.5r and thats the motor i was comparing to that last pic. Definatly a different cooling head from mine but all else looks identical.
