T-Works MBX8/7 quick change engine mount

T-Works have introduced their new quick change engine mount set for the Mugen MBX8 and MBX7 buggies. The set contains a 1-piece base as well as two engine blocks and the overall design allows to keep the base in the car while detaching the engine by only undoing the blocks/base screws. As the gear mesh is adjusted sliding the engine on the blocks, it can be installed and released without any hassle as the engine/blocks assembly slides right into place without the need for gear mesh adjustments. The assembly is available as a complete set but the base and engine blocks are also available separately and including the needed hardware.
