OS .18TM in Jato.

**sken911** · 09-13-2005, 03:25 PM

Ok. I'am thinking about putting this engine in my Jato. If you have done this allready, what manifold and pipe are you using. Answers please.

i htink everyone is using the hpi onroad header . i am about to do this in a week or too also .

**Drakan** · 09-13-2005, 03:47 PM

this header

I used the stock pipe

But I will be going with a Fantom onroad one shortly

.This is a popular one as well

**Jato666** · 09-13-2005, 04:06 PM

ill do this soon as well, as long as i can get my jato shifting. and ill prolly use that header, and that ae pipe, motor saver air filter for a t-maxx too. should be a sleeper.

do you have to modify the header to fit the OS .18 TM and be able to use the ez start ?

**drtyjrsy** · 09-15-2005, 10:40 AM

from what ive heard as long as you get that hpi header the ez start will fit and work fine

header and pipe

**k1e1v1i1n** · 09-15-2005, 02:19 PM

i saw that 1 too were u able to get the rubber thing to fit over it . or was there any other mods ?

**GASSHEAD** · 09-15-2005, 02:22 PM

if ur talking about the dynamite i only had to grind alittle of the bottom so it will fit
over the pull start

**k1e1v1i1n** · 09-15-2005, 02:27 PM

ya i was i thought u were using the stock pipe for a sec so i was wondering if that would all fit together cause i know that header is fatter then stock .

**GASSHEAD** · 09-15-2005, 02:36 PM

i am actually selling this truck, but just for you to see. It fits with out any mods and works awesome.

**Jato Migs** · 09-16-2005, 11:01 PM

Portyansky.... are you using a starter box for your Jato...? I didn't see a pullstart or rotostart backplate on your TM....

If you still want to know you may want to check out mvbashers.com he is over there more than he is here.

**Jato666** · 09-18-2005, 09:33 AM

Hey guys i have a noobie question for you, and since this thread is about the .18tm I figured that i would ask here. I have a tm on the way and i was wondering, do i have to pull the tranny out to put the motor back in or is it just really right? I just pulled the 2.5 out and noticed it came out rough, so i just figured i asked since the tm is supposed to come tomorrow and i want to be ready.

Did you loosen the engine mount bolts and slide it forward for more clearance?

**Green & Mean** · 10-29-2006, 12:39 AM

This is a good example but i have a pull start on it

**Green & Mean** · 10-29-2006, 12:41 AM

No Not Really U Is Gonna Have 2 Grind Down The Ez-start A Little Even If U Have A Pull Start
