@jakeataker yes it was pretty simple. You just have to redrill the motor mount holes, and slot them so you have some adjustability for setting the gear mesh. I used the motor mounts from a OFNA Pirate 10 Monster (pretty cheap to buy from Nitrohouse) and since i know they work well, id recommend using them.
If you go on rcuniverse and search through the official nitro firestorm thread, you can see pics of the build. Search my username "Fuel Crazy"
btw forgot to mention, if you use an engine that requires bump start (no pullstart or rotostart), you will have to open up the hole in the chassis for the bumpstarter.
was it easy to put the engine in???
