I wouldnt be so amazed lmao I mean the mini mgt is the size of a t-maxx. BTW new era I believe has the big block kit. Someone sells it though.

I used the New Era kit to put an older Picco .26 Outlaw ( Big Block ) in the mini mgt. After upping the gear ratio to 15/19 and using a 7mm restrictor, it is just about perfect. I have been pretty careful about rolling on the gas so as to save the drive train, but so far so good. No failures.

Wheelies anytime in 1st gear, and a modest wheelie when shifting into 2nd at about 2/3 throttle. Anytime the truck is in 2nd gear and the engine is not wound out, a quick pull on the trigger and the truck wheelies.

Actually, with just a little care, the truck can be driven around under control.

So far the BB engine is really neat.
