Need Help with TGX and Engine

[AOEBombcat 0]

Hi All, I just brought a Tamiya TGX without an engine. I was wonder what is the best engine for this kit. I was wondering if I can use OS Max .15 CV-RX but I am not sure if it would fit. I am also thinking of getting something cheaper, but dont know if it would fit or not.

Please help.

Thank you

My TGX came with a Tamiya FS-15LT engine included in the kit.

Most shops in Japan dont even stock stand alone Tamiya engines, so going with an alternative should not be a problem

Oh, the TGX I got didnt come with an engine. Thats why I am looking for one. But with an alternative should not be a problem, then I will be getting an OS MAX. Thanks

As another option, try a Terra Crusher engine. They go straight in and give loads of power. Just make sure you use the aluminium clutch set! Ebay have them with manifold and electric start for next to nothing, (for around £50.00). If you want Tamiya original engines and manifolds, try PK Racing in The Netherlands, they are sharp on prices and hold stock/can get stock that you have no chance of getting from the UK.
