RE: Mid tank mod
You can use their servo plate on stock TVPs...you just have to drill one hole in each TVP for the plate''s rear support. The front of the FLM chassis is the same length as stock.
From that point, there''s a lot of different mid-tank mods...

No prob...theres no reason why it wouldn''t work for you. The hardest part will be to make sure you drill the holes so the servo plate sits level, and that shouldn''t be too tough.

Yup, I did it, but only used part of the FLM plate. Check out my site at www.savagehowto.com for more info. There isn't a write up, but it'll get you started.
