Losi Spin Start
I'm putting a 454 in my 2nd Savage, and Ineed to know if the Losi Spin start shaft is long enough to clear what is needed to clear in the savage to reach the backplate? Has anyone else run this mill in their savage? Igot the p/s, s/s combo backplate....but since my other savy is pullstart, Id like to use the spin start on this mill. Are there longer versions from losi of their shafts...maybe for their Muggy? Thanks in advance for any help.

RE: Losi Spin Start
He will want to use a drill and use either the AE or losi Bit for the losi engine. Associated and Losi use the same HEX, but there will be no issue fitting it in the savage.
Im assuming he's using the 454 with the dual start? If this is the case he will need the above posted starter bit. 6 bux from Tower and plenty long enough.
Let me know if you need the part number

RE: Losi Spin Start
This is correct. Ihave the dual start and will probably use my drill to run it. I was damn close to purchasing the HPIrotostart until Icasually took a look at the 454 shaft hole....and thought to myself,....that doesnt look like a dogbone fit 
Thanks for the help guys.....I went ahead and mounted the engine and it doesnt seem to be as far as Iwas thinking for the shaft to reach, as you all have said.
