snowbl!nd Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Compare the specs of each engine - dimensions, crankshaft type etc should all be listed on the respective manufacturers website. From what little i know about Revos you'll probably require a big block conversion kit for starters. Maybe modelsport would consider a part exchange if the engine is brand new, try emailing them.
