T-maxx Big Block Engine Mount

[tmaxxfreek]

I have An Ofna 3.5 i want to put on my Tmaxx , i dont want to change the chassis plate, is there a mount i can buy to put this beast on my Tmaxx?

If the 3.5 is a "true big block" then you'll need a bb mount (google) and either a bb chassis, a monoblock chassis extension, or some "tranny moving forward" skills.....to name a few things.

This is the only one I ever ran across:

Personally, I'd avoid the hassle and just get a trx3.3 or dynamite 19 or picco 26.

Not change the chassis plate? Yeah that is going to be hard to do. Olds has a really good point that if you are not looking to do extra fab work you really can't put a big block in your Maxx.

I did the 3.3 conversion on my original .15 tMax and it cost a hell of alot less and couldn't keep the front wheels on the ground. Had to put on wheelie bar, still changed to 2.5 now i can steer it .wheelies are cool and fun but if all you do is wheelie then gets old fast.

To do a big block ofna makes a 4.2 specific to the traxxas. And have part #'s for their mounts to traxxas chassis. Not sure if any other BB will fit those mounts.

That is not a big block. It is a purpose made engine to fit in a smzll block location. It is shorter than a standard BB engine. But it does take a special mount
