Status: offline 		ok, my bud has the picco 26.

you should get the 18 tooth clutch bell and also get the 49 tooth spur gear.

they fit perfect together and it screams fast as hell (kept up with my 1/8 scale ultra mbx pro and other buggys at the track)

and even better, it still wheelies on demand with the 18 tooth in it.

Status: offline 		Yeah I would also recommend the 18t clutch bell with a slightly smaller spur gear. This way you wont have to cut anything out to make it fit and it won't be so peppy to flip it over backwards all the time.

Status: offline 		it isnt really possible to get a 49 tooth spur here in australia since hpi parts take for ever to arrive here. would a 17 tooth clutch bell be sufficient? what do you have to do to get the 18 tooth cb to fit?

Status: offline 		With the stock spur gear if you go with a bigger clutch bell sometimes it will hit the tvp on the side. This is because you have to adjust the whole engine over all the way or the mesh with the spur gear will be too tight.
By using a 49 tooth spur gear this will give you more room to mesh the gears properly.
