That is one nice buggy! lots of good hopups on there.
The Rules for 1/8 buggy racing limit the engine size to .21. Hence the buggies at all big races have .21's and its recomended to run a .21 but small club races and such should not have a problem running larger displacement engines unless you constanly take A Main 1st place.. then the other racers might have someting to say.

Very nice!! I think the diff fluid sounds fine but I am not sure on the shocks. I would definitely reccomend putting a .21 in there and no bigger so that you will not have any problems racing. Besides... a nice .21 is more than enough power. Can I ask what you picked it up for??

240 shipped. It came with a bunch of other parts also. Stock chassis, other aluminum parts, and stock replacements.
I am going to get a .21. I was just wondering why it had to be that.

Does anyone know what manufacturer is better for hop-up parts: Fioroni or King Headz?
I am guessing Fioroni because their prices are a bit higher, but that is not always the case.

They are both good. I'd just go King heads less expensive and supports the american company.

Both Fioroni and King Headz are quality parts. You cant go wrong with either one. I would recommend the King Headz. There in Indiana and Chris King races at Leisure Hours so you might be able to get him to bring some parts to the track instead of shipping them. Great product and excellent support.

Thanks
New wheels, foams and tires are only about 50-60 bucks. Not bad compared to the 100 monster truck.
