This may be a dumb question but here goes...
Is there any reason that I couldn't bump start a roto-start engine??

you can bump any engine that has a pull or roto start as long as it's a bump start ready chassis

I think he means that some buggy engine mounts will not work when engines have backplates such as pullstarts or rotostarts. Usually the backplates hit the plates that mount to the engine.
At least this is what I think he is referring to

On my new Mayhem ST with the roto start, the motor mounts are taller than my Mayhem buggy because the roto start stuf hangs lower. That raises the flywheel to far to reach the BUMP WHEEL.I cant wait to put a back plate in that sportworks .26. Its already as fast as the buggy with a VZB

Does the mayhen have two plats that mount to the chassis then the engine mounts mount to that.
That is the way my Kyoshos are, and when I had my K2 and used a pullstart engine in my truggy, I was able to notch the plates and the engine would fit fine and be able to use the bump box. Just an idea...
