Will this engine work in the 2.5 T-Maxx?

Might have found a good deal on it. "O.S. MAX .18 CV-RX NITRO ENGINE"

Will it be a direct drop in? Or will modifications need to be made? I'd like a fast response, since this is on eBay, and it's ending tonight. Thanks.

No, not a drop in.
Will work, but with other parts.

New exhaust system (side exhaust).
New throttle linkage for rotary carb.
CB adapter nut thingy to hold the flywheel on and the CB to ride on.

Good little engine though. Wish it existed when I was running a maxx.

Okay thanks. Well I just went with a TRX 3.3. I Found a good deal on eBay, and went for it.
