          This is the O.S. Max 30VG (P) ES Electric Start, Rear Exhaust
               Monster Truck Engine with Pilot Type Crankshaft.

FEATURES: Preinstalled E.S. Starter backplate is designed to use the DuraTrax
            Kwik-Pit Super Start for the HPI Savage or the HPI
            Roto Starter System (HPIP8711), see COMMENTS
          Same mounting dimensions as .21 size engines making upgrading easier
          Advanced Bi-Metallic Liner (ABL) cylinder liner construction
            This process uses a double layer of plating material rather than
            one thick layer. This helps the metal bond to the cylinder and is
            more durable. Also, the plating process is more consistent,
            resulting in a more precise fit between piston and sleeve for
            better compression and longer life.
          Machined aluminum piston, 3-port cylinder liner and double bushed
            knife edge connecting rod
          21E single needle Slide Valve Carburetor (OSMG2456) with insulated
            sleeve to prevent fuel vaporization
          SG (pilot) type oversized crankshaft with rubber-sealed front bearing
            and oversized rear bearing to handle high torque loads
          Two year limited warranty

INCLUDES: O.S. Max 30VG (P) ES Electric Start Monster Truck Engine, illustrated
            manual, #8 glow plug, #203 air filter, two foam filters, two air
            filter O-rings and preinstalled E.S. Starter backplate

REQUIRES: Duratrax Kwik-Pit Super Start System or the HPI Savage
            Roto Starter System (HPIP8711)
          Car blend nitromethane fuel with 10-30% nitromethane content,
            20% nitro content recommended as starting point
          Most of the fuels we carry meet or exceed the lubricant content
            required for optimum performance and maximum engine life. In the
            past, the conventional lubricant content used in fuel was 18%. But
            with new advanced technologies, fuels like Red Alert and O'Donnell
            for example, have a better quality of lubricants even though the
            percentages of lubricant content are lower. These high-tech
            lubricants provide exceptional cooling and protection.

COMMENTS: The manual says to install the backplate from the HPI Roto Starter
            System onto the engine. This is incorrect, the compatible backplate
            is already installed on the engine.
          The backplate for the HPI K4.6 engine will not fit on this engine.

          To use this engine on the Duratrax Nitro Warhead, use OFNG0098 Clutch
            Nut.
