an OS 18 TM would be great, but for the Revo, the Sirio .23 drop in engine would probably be better overall than the SH .28.

yeah the SH is too heavy it will screw up the handling and it's just too much for the small truck

Ditto that.

Kinda makes me sick knowing I spent $315 for my S-23 when it came out (no pipe).

The TM-323 should be some very serious bang for the buck indeed.

I will get that engine (RB TM323) at the end of the month to for my revo. Also is a new and ported SH.28 here. Don't know if the SH comes in my savage or my Revo. If the RB TM 323 Engine has not enough power then the SH .28 will take his place in

They have it ... shipped for $238. Only downside is... they sell them as fast as they get them... so, they never have any in-stock. You have to just order it... and the importer will send it straight to you. RB doesn't give HP or RPM ratings on their engines... since there really is no way to TRULY tell the HP.
