Ok, so Im starting to put together a list of major items that Iwill need in order to build a quality, fast, GTX Ineed some insight and suggestions on the following items that Ifound on gizmotors.com:

Electronics:

volt watch II onboard receiver battery monitor
Futaba s3050 digital servo 90 oz/in. @6v. (either 2 or 3 depending on how I do the throttle linkage)
Through box seal kit (3 or 4)
Futaba switch harness
400mm Futaba antenna
Aluminum servo tray (2 or 3 depending again on throttle linkage)
Futaba futl7630 603fs receiver
Futaba 3pmx computer radio
Venom racing 5 cell 6v 1600 MAH
Venom fail safe
Double end 4-40 variety pack linkage rods (2)
Aeromarine #13 radio box

Drivetrain:

2 RCMK k-600 motors (gonna be a tonnn of power!!!! )
2 diaphragm water pumps
4 through the hull water dumps
2 through the hull water pickups
2 square 1/4" flex shafts (dont know length yet)
2 1/4" square drive collets
2 GMM racing drive dogs
2 RCMK Arneson drives (I think thats the right name for them?The steerable drives that were on another GTX build on the forum)
T bar
2 brass tubes

Hull:

Expresscraft GTX 65"

Things I definitely need help with:

Motor mounts (2 k-600's in a GTX hull is gonna take some ingenuity)
exhaust tips
exhaust (wont really know until Ihave everything in front of me)
cowl locks
plexiglass for the radio box cover

other than bell cranks and little odds and ends do I have a pretty complete list and will everything above work well with one another. I know someone is gonna pipe in about the RCMK's and reliability and too much power but lets save that for another thread ok? Any help you guys could offer would be great! Its this forum that got me this far in my thought process!! lol

edit: if I decided to go with clutches what brand can handle the power?Has anyone ever done a side hull exhaust?
