You will have to cut or remove and space the rear tubes. Take your roof off and you will see how it goes together. I will be making a support that will regain even more strength with them removed.
 
I Think that it is a little too close to the fuel tank, and filler cap, wouldn't make to refill it when it is warm! Otherwise looks pretty good. But' i'd like to see the body after it has run abit, might be a little melty. but no worse then were i put mine at the back.
 
short Dom vid


Thanks to Rob at www.VancouverHobbies.com the Canadian connection for these trucks, I got my parts extra fast as he parted out a MT5 for me. So here is a short vid of my Dom mod, by adding 3 inchs to the pipe I believe it lost a little on the bottom end but It comes on hard as it spools up. Looking at Sprint's mod I think by keeping it tucked in front of the rear mount you will get the full benifit of this torque pipe. Regarless of this it's wayyyy better than the X-can performance wise!

Yes I agree you wouldn't want to come in from several high speed passes and fill up. I think this will have a great weght distrubution as far as not upsetting the handling. My new design pipe from all new materials that we are working on will be a reverse of this design here meaning the outlet will be on the Right side and the "U" bend on the left. This will allow little more clearance for your fingers during fill up.
 
Thanks

Thank you for the complinent. I am a Racer oriented RC user. I race 1/4 Outlaw Sprints on asphalt in Ft Worth Texas. I am also a airplane fabricator/mechanic for a living. So this experience helps me with quality , keeping the handling, and end user friendly to work on. I am glad you like it. We hope to have our tooling done for the pipe soon.

In anticipation of recieving my new pipe...I have already flipped the tank 180*...the filling cap is now on the opposite side...problem solved:)

Saw Sprint 77's modded dom it looks great!!! My first concern was filling up with a hot pipe but as soon as I said it I saw the solution turn the tank around looks like I came up with it just a little late though. I also thought that the fuel lines would run to the carb a little better with the tank sitting the oppisit way 'round.
 
my only concern is the lack of a brace to secure the pipe to the rear shock tower......but i'm sure sprint77 has one on the finished product or will add one:)mabey there is one and I just cant see it
