Looking for some sensible suggestions, not a flame war as to the best, the fastest, engine argument. I don't ever recall losing a race in off-road because I was short of power, my driving is usually to blame.

Kind of new to nitro and have been running the OS VG. Enough power for me at a very cheap price. However, it doesn't seem to make it through a gallon or two and begins to drop off rapidly.

What might a guy look for in a durable, dependable engine? Again, speed is not at all a top concern.
