new pipe and head kit installed

[revobasher]

I just recieved my new redcat pipe (very loud) 28.5 head kit and 6,000 rpm clutch spring. The 28.5 helped but the addition of the pipe made a huge difference. I managed to blow up my stock rear diff pins/gears in about 5 minutes, got new hardened pins from largescalerc for free (thanks guys). The new pins are holding up great but then the two 25 tooth (c&d) gears disintigrated after about 15 minutes. I guess metal gears are my next must have parts. Thus far I have replaced both stock servos, stock exhaust, front and rear diff pins, c&d gears, numerous shock piston e clips. I'm sure there will be more parts in need of replacement, if you guys have any suggestions I would love to hear them. What parts work well, which don't. I will have pics a vids soon. Also does anyone have experience with the aluminum gear cover?

I'd give the aluminum gear plate a try before the metal gears. http://www.rampagehopups.com/product.sc?categoryId=6&productId=266


At $30.00 off it's a great deal.


I'm running an ESP modded 30.5 in mine with this plate and have yet to strip a gear.


That Redcat pipe is crap. Mine didn't last much more than half a tank before cracking in two.
