The F5.9 engine is a huge powerplant with eye-opening
acceleration and ground-tearing amounts of torque, capable of
powering your Savage up to ludicrous speeds. With nearly 4hp on
tap, it really is true that there's no replacement for
displacement!
The F5.9 engine is started by an easy pullstarter system, with a
one-way bearing encased in a large 14mm hex for increased
durability. If you want to upgrade to even simpler engine starting,
just install the F-Series HPI Roto Start engine starting system for
push-button mechanical engine starting.
The F5.9 will fit right into any 1/8th scale big-block chassis,
such as the Trophy buggy or truggy, or the Savage X, for awesome
wheelie action and roost-tossing wheelspins!

Yes, it would fit your 8IGHT no problem.
It's down to personal preference but yes we'd probably side with this engine between those two.

Yes, the F5.9 is an excellent engine with strong power and torque figures, so should be an ideal upgrade for your Hobao.
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
That would depend on what vehicle you are fitting it into, as the exhaust and clutch etc are usually vehicle specific.

HPI don't quote an RPM limit for this I'm afraid...
It should work well in most truggies however!

No, you would need a small block engine for that car, so something like this HPI-107824
Answered by: Si @ Wheelspin Models
No there is no way this engine would work in that car, The engine is simply a much larger engine and would not fit in the space provided by that car
Answered by: Si @ Wheelspin Models
Yes it is.
