Overview

The Zenoah G290RC is one of the most popular upgrade engines for the HPI Baja series and the Losi 1/5 scale trucks and buggies. Zenoah engines use the best materials and come with a Walbro carburettor and an NGK spark plug to ensure they run at optimum performance.

Note

For most RC models (including all models listed below) you will need to install the standard air-filter and exhaust that came with your RC car.

Losi 5IVE-T / Losi DBXL: Use your clutch mount and flywheel cover from your old (stock) engine for correct installation. Everything else should bolt up.

TLR (Losi) 5IVE-B: As you cannot use the stock clutch mount or flywheel cover, you will need to purchase a shorter clutch mount and a Rovan flywheel cover or the HPI flywheel cover separately.

HPI Baja 5B / HPI Baja 5T / HPI Baja 5SC: We recommend purchasing a shorter spacer (alternatives: HPI-102164, HPI-87458 & HPI-87571) for correct installation (the Zenoah clutch mount's mounting stud is too long). Everything else should bolt up.
