Advise on finding an engine for this kit?

I'd like to build this as my first kit. But finding nitro engines doesn't seem to be that easy, especially bigger CC. Most places are out of stock on LRP, OS or SH engines .32 or bigger.

If I want an XL, it makes sense to have an XL engine haha.

Any advise on sourcing big block engines? (UK)

Hi, looking for advice. First time buyer (UK). Read description

Hi, so I have a couple of questions. As this type of boot isn't common at all in the UK especially for work.

I currently have a Red Wing 2218 steel toe logger boot. I bought it to ease into this style of work wear. After wearing them for awhile its clear the boot is a bit too big, the leather has worn away around the steel toe, outer sole starting to separate. In other words, not worth the money In my opinion. Only bought them in November.

So my main two questions are. 1) how hard are non safety toe boots compared to safety toe?

I see a lot of people in the USA/ CA don't see the need. Here in the UK lots of people use safety toe even if not needed. I'm a bit of a stickler for it but if a non safety toe boot has really hard leather, then I guess I can budge.

  1. how does sizing compare to Red wings? Or how does Whites compare to Nicks, etc etc.

Lastly. I work as a gardener/ landscaper. The UK climate is wet and mild mostly. I kneel down a lot so toes take a lot of wear.

Also, I was interested in Whites Longliner boot or the new Buckin special.

Any info is greatly appreciated. Thank you
