Now the dilemma.... Do I keep the Hyper .21 8-Port Race engine in this, or do I put the Hyper .21 in the Kyosho and put the Picco G-1 in the Buggy????

Put that rev monster 8 port in your on road! It has a two speed right?
That sounds like a perfect match

Yeah, the Inferno is a 2-speed. I was originally planning on putting the Hyper into the Inferno, then I noticed it is the Race version, not the standard 8-port. I can't find any specs on the Picco G-1.

I had the Kanai .21 in the Inferno, which was WICKED FAST. I don't know if I got a rock caught between the spur and CB, or what happened, but the Crankshaft broke, right behind the Flywheel nut. I've never seen a shaft break like that.

That could very well be possible. The GT doesn't have a front torque stiffener. I guess they figure it is mostly for on-road, and MILD off-road, so it doesn't need the added stiffness. With the Buggy, I got a few extra parts, so I checked the length of the original front stiffener against the GT. It was close, so I tightened the ends a little, and got it to fit.

Got the buggy out today, and got the engine tuned. This thing RIPS.... Handles VERY nice. Overall, I am very happy with it.

I still have to decide between the Picco G-1 and the Hyper .21 Race engine.

I think I will try out the G-1, and see how that performs.
