I would really like to, but my machinist buddy who I'd have to talk into making some of the parts is moving back to Texas.. So in short, not likely. I'd need to make an engine mount, find a clutch and flywheel to fit the 7mm shaft (which I cannot cut the crankshaft anyway), and whatever other mods to fit it to the chassis. Probably won't happen. I think I'm gonna gear-flip the trans in #2, install bigger pinions and spur gears, add the brushless transmission bevel gears, and maybe add Muggy towers and shock shafts. I've got some other projects going that I need to finish first, but I'm gonna find something to do with it anyway...

I think with those mods and my great running .28, that truck should do close to 45mph.
