My other RC

Ok guys i have been aching to do this for ages right now.
I am placing my old K 5.9 Engine in to my on road car. That car was my first nitro so i didnt know much and messed up the motor. i payed 100 bucks for it and it will cost me much more to get the motor replaced so I'm taking the matters in to my own hand and replacing the .15 motor with a whoping 5.9 CC motor. I will take alot of pics as i go in my build and give u guys an update.

Wrenching day 1

last night i took the motor off of its mount to see if the mounts would fit the 5.9. They don't there is a indent on the mount that marls where the motor would fit but it is not drilled so i need to drill it and tap it. The problem is that i don't have a tap so i need to buy one. other then that the motor looks like it will fit. I will do a dry fit with out the screws so see if i need to grind some stuff off wish me luck

BTW: i didnt spell check this i will do it when i get home (Wrote all this on my iphone)

****DELAYED****
Guys i am delaying this project since i just found my .18 motor from my first car that never ran. I am planing to install that on to this car Wish me luck.

sounds like a interesting idea, keep us posted!! i always used to do stuff like that,when i was younger we had a yz 250 engine in this super light go cart frame "would literally almost flip over if you nailed the gas" lol still have scars from that thing lmao

i have a 1/10th scale onroad. I payed 100 euros for it in spain i learned how to tune and every thing on that. The biggest mistake was that i never had a air filter on that motor so i got a bunch of crud in it then i leaned it too much so it would all ways over heat and flame out. now i am planing to make it go lightning fast and if it brakes then it brakes i am not running it any way so i don't have to worry about it.

Ok i have a question i will make a mounting hole in my Al engine mount to accommodate the 5.9 i will use a drill bit made for metal but how should i do it ? i have never drilled in to metal.

OK guys this project has been delayed untill Further notice. I just found a fresh .18 motor from my old old RC truggy that never ran (since i know more about motors i was able to get it started again) and I'm planning to install it on to my on road. I will do this project but not this week.
