If you have the stock transmission, you better upgrade that thing to full big bore aluminum! The stock transmission does not hold up to much.

Yes sir , I’ve completely upgraded everything, big block tranny case , backbone gears , layshaft , it’s been a long road to get to this point , now I just need to find some dam screws !!!

Yes I’ve looked at that , the part #’s don’t work at all as to locating them on there site , I’m hoping this part # kvs149 is a screw set for both gas and e versions , thanx for the input

Well to heck with all this !! I took my Taylorized beast into the ace hardware store, so I could get my bolt lengths right, got metric hex head bolts for $8 , for some reason I attracted a crowd

Funny. Better than the dogs i see at my AH.

This is what i do for any RC volt that is load bearing. Measure the depth of the hole and the thickness of the xyz part. Subtract 2mm for inconsistent drill hole or threads and get the nearest length.

For my motor the M5x16mm above are now M5x20mm. Overkill? Maybe but my motors don't vibrate loose or move. Plus the extra $.02 is worth it IMO.

Dark studios , pretty cool stuff !! Just waiting on some washers for engine mounts and a killswitch and I’ll be putting the beast together soonly !!
