Revo:3.3 or Big block - 03-21-2006, 08:13 PM

After my motor that I have now goes, I am looking to get something bigger, should I just go for the 3.3 or should I go for another type of big block, I like how the 3.3 just bolts up and no need for a starter box but let me here what you think.

I am guessing you are talking about your revo because you mentioned a starter box.

I would see what kind of reviews the 3.3 gets. Going with the 3.3 would be the easiest to just drop in and go.

well seeing as how the 3.3 is a .20 ur not missing much not getting a big block, so go with the 3.3 and its a direct drop in much easier on u and the pocket book lol

I agree...The OS .30 came out and had bearing issues early on. I'd wait until a few more people have worked through the 3.3 before jumping on the bandwagon. jmo

You only have 1/3 gal on the 2.5? wow...I thought you had more on like at least 3/4....I wanna try the THS pipe now, because on the 3.3 the trinity was causing overheating with the restrictor in, and it wouldn't have enough backpressure with it out.

Yeah, but I'm gonna have the money for the 3.3 soon so I think im just going to send in my old 2.5 and get a new 3.3 and just let it sit in the box until the 2.5R goes. Better than having the motor go and then not having enough money to get a new one so the truck sits.
