Ok so I found a decent deal on a Super Tiger .90, how in the heck can I put this on this Nitro Rustler chassis I just came up with? Why would I want to do this? Because Bacon is tasty. :ghost: There are also some smaller Super Tiger engines available too, down to a .34 but I figure If I'm going to do it why not go big?
 
From what I can gather online the Super Tiger .90 has a 5/16 x24 thread pitch on the crank, That comes out to just under .8mm (7.9375). So If I can find a clutchbell\flywheel combo that uses an 8mm id bearing I should be able to make it work, I think.
 
Good luck, it will probably be a fully custom build (mounts, gearing, etc). I'm not too sure it would be worth it, the engine only has 1/2 the RPM of a typical car engine. The plane engines also rely on the prop wash to keep them cool, so I think you'll have tuning issues.
