I'm going old school on mine, a real MADE IN THE USA K&B .18 engine. They are available from Mecoa and I have a machined head coming for it since mine came with the sport head. The pull start fits the non pull start mounts perfectly, but needs a pull start header which is a hard part to find currently.
This one comes with the better head....

Re: rc10 GT engine question
That is awesome! Appreciate that tip and Link!

Re: rc10 GT engine question
Just get some reasonably fine sandpaper and lay it on something flat like glass or melamine or wrap some sandpaper around a flat stick/block and sand the edges. Once the anno is removed give them a light polish and your set.
