hyper 21 w/OS Carb - 01-07-2006, 05:19 PM

This is/was my back up engine. This is a non pullstart engine. It has less than a 1/2 gallon it, it was used 1 race weekend after break in and thats it. THe Hyper is a great strong engine, the problem with them is the carb. So the fix for it was putting on a OS 20E carb onto it. The carb alone is around 65.00

This engine can be yours for $80.00.

Let me know

i agree that the engine is strong, and runs great with the 20E. i personally run one in my K3 and have had no issues with it, since I changed carbs it holds the tune perfectly.

Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I wish it wasnt bump start or I would do the .21 conversion to the revo for that price. Or I need to find a buyer for the ti skid... Or maybe I will just get a hand-held bump starter or something... I'm confused. Good deal though...

Ok... one more time for those who haven't caught on from other threads reguarding bumpstart motors... I have the HCR Titanium skid which DOES NOT allow clearance for a starter box. Thus... a starter box does me no good. (Also the reason why a hand held one would work...)

That is a good idea but then how do I start the truck when I want to bash?? Or do I just throw the stock 2.5 back on?? Too bad I shaved down the plastic skids untill they were just little nubs sticking out. May not fare too well in a collision with the ground. Rather than kick the truck back up it would bury itself and flip... I don't know. I may go with a OS .21 RG-X with .21 conversion for the Revo... cheaper and more powerful than the TM. Plus I am hearing more and more complaints of blown TM's with low amounts of fuel through them. I dunno...

I dont have a revo so bear with me. . . . can that skid be modifed with a dremel toallow for a bump start??? OR just take it off and replace the parts you shaved down and just run it stock ????. I personally think a bump start motor is the way to go. If i could do it to the savage i would.

It is hard because the way the revo sits on the box it is not that it sticks too far out to the side... but there is an angled piece that connects the front and rear skid to the center skid... making it a one piece skid. The stock is 3 pieces. Therefore the truck cannot sit far enough down on the box to hit the wheel... I haven't had a chance to modify an old box to see if it works but that will be tried next week...
