RE: Opinion please.
What would you put it in?
It won't mount to any MT I know about. Look at it. Ther are three mounting points out the bottom not the two wings w/ 4 holes.
It's also a very small displacement for a MT.
Couple that with the time it takes to ship from overseas and you'ld be better off spending $70 - $80 and get a new 2.5r from the states. You're only looking at $20 - $30 more and you'll have it in a few days.

I think i want to get that. That is the 360 carb right. And it is a direct drop in to the 2.5 tmaxx right.
Ill keep looking at that 2.5r cause i only got $70 right now. Parents took some to bank [:@]

Don't take my word on it but I don't think it will fit because the 2.5(.15) is a small block and that .21 is a big block. You can't just put a big block in a small block's mounts. Atleast that's what I think.

That engine will NOT fit into a T-Maxx (or Revo, for that matter) with out buying and installing a bib block conversion kit. That goes for either the 2.5r or 3.3 Maxx's & Revo's too.
