The crank shaft end and carb type, exhaust port placement, side or rear are the critical deciding factors.
If it does match the above but smaller, .15 as you stated,
I suggest you go with this.

It''ll perform better and last longer.

OK I am about 99% positive the above engines i listed will work. Anyone else care to chime in?

The 18 would be plenty for that little fella. I ran one in my HPI Nitro MT (old school MT2) and it was more than the thing needed.

I believe the OS18CV-R will pretty much bolt right in. With a better pipe, you'd get better power out of it though.
