For an engine, go with a O.S. CV-RX 18. it will bolt right in. The engine is very reliable and easy to tune.
RPM a-arms would be a good up grade also. RPM also makes bumpers and radio boxes for the RC10GT.
Ditch the stock clutch for a MIP 4 in 1.

An OS cvr 18 is an awsome choice for your Gt,But
if you do get one,you need to be forwarned about
the xtreme power of that engine an becareful on
your first runs untill you get use to controling it.
Im not saying this,thinking that you dont have
knowledge,but I feel that I need to say something
so you dont wreck your ride do to the xtreme power
of that engine,I hope you enjoy...

This engine will be a direct bolt in. You won't have to buy a single part to fit it.

Oh, and those guys aren't joking. This thing is a torque monster. I had it in my CEN MT2 and it would regularly shred the clutch bell. When that didn't explode it would haul some serious ass. Now I have that engine in my NTC3. It now simply roasts all four wheels when I jam it wide open. It's quite civilized if I want it to be, though. If I give it partial throttle it just putts around as docile as a walmart car, and it transitions from this to WOT shenanigans smoothly and quickly.
