Okay while I was looking at the .19t I stumbled upon two questions. First of all I noticed how the .21 mach 2 says buggy engine so could I still put it in a tmaxx. And second I also saw the .28 dynamite big red. Could I get that to run in a tmaxx or would it be overkill/ too expensive to upgrade the drive train/ new engine mounts. So how much would that all cost. And also tell me if I should I put this in a new thread. Thanks.
 
Well I'm not sure about the .21 i think it is still a small block and will drop right into the tmaxx and revo. But the .28 i know is a big block but will work you just need a bb mount kit. And as far as overkill i believe in it myself. But you will need to consider upgrades on drive train due to the torque and power versus the 2.5 and .19. Hell like i stated in previous post I've already reemed one driveshaft from the torque of the .19T. So IMO i would not go any bigger for now than the mach 2 .21.
 
Well I was looking at pics of them and the carb is flipped around from how the 2.5 is set up so the throttle linkage won't fit right. Unless you can just unscrew then flip the carb around.
