I'm not sure what King Motor has. I thought they were 3 bolt at one time. The HY/CY is 2 bolt.

From what I understand, they are CY parts assembled and slapped with an HY label. When I tore mine down to put on a copper gasket, I saw no difference between that and my CY. The carb is not a Walbro though. It is the exact same carb that came with my old Firehammer MT. I used that carb up until I sold it, 3 years. To me, it's not a bad carb. The motor works fine so far as well.
 
im more than happy with my xb-e. i can take it for a spin at 10pm without the neighbors caslling the cops. its faster than any gas one and clean. its not wearing out . i have baja wheels on it and it will crawl around or spin all 4 tires all the way up to 50 mph which is way to fast for any 1/5 scale.

I'm thinking next winter my next project will be to convert my xb to an xb-e!

What size lipo packs are you running?
 
im using my 3s packs from my SCT. in series for 6s. if i have a [lace to race then ill buy 6s packs and run them in parallel. took it to the track yesterday and there is a set of jumps. first a rollover little double then a short run to a tripple with a double right after that. last week nobody (1/8 scale buggy/truggy) made anything more than a tripple /double well the xb-e can do a quad out of the whole section!. i ran hpi dirtbuster tires on it.
 
i had really good luck with an ezrun 80a 2350 kit on my e revo it lastest a year and i accidentally ran it through some water like 5 times. but i finally killed it running at full throttle across a slightly shaggy lawn, after many passes. and everyone says the hobbywing esc's are smoother than CC
 
I love my xb-e, so much so i'm selling my mcd evo3 comp. this xb-e is just an awesome vehicle to run.
