An engine of this size requires extra cooling capacity, and the 30VG delivers. The blue-anodized head’s massive surface area combines with fins on the crankcase to carry heat away — and is V-shaped for better clearance. |

The 21E carb features slide-valve operation for smooth, linear control — plus 2 screwdriver-adjustable needles for easy tuning. |

| The big block with big versatility. |

While most .30-size engines are all about power, the 30VG has a square design that suits it perfectly for any 1/8 scale application. The 30VG's muscle is a natural for your monster trucks, but it can also be dropped into a buggy or on-roader for incredible speeds. Now there are four versions to choose from — including one with an Electric Start (ES) option for even faster, easier, and more reliable starting! All are ready for quick installations and retro-fits.
- Performance advantages include a rear exhaust design, ABL sleeve, a 3-port liner and a double-bushed knife-edge conrod.
- An insulated sleeve on the carb prevents fuel vaporization — a feature that the competitors don’t have!
- The crankshaft is oversized for durability, with a rubber-sealed front bearing and a rear bearing that’s oversized to carry torque loads.
- All 30VG engines come with an SG (pilot) shaft (P), #8 glow plug and #203 air filter.
- The 30VG (P) ES Electric Start w/21E Slide Carb is equipped with a back plate for using a DuraTrax® Kwik Pit™ Super Start or HPI Roto Starter ignition system.
