Status: offline 		It will, I used a couple of them, one new one did not work and I had a couple die already. I have been using the MG995 lately. Several Ebay sellers sell them for around 15 dollars shipped. A 180 oz servo that seems to be pretty good. BB

Status: offline 		make sure whatever you use is hardened for use with metal spur gears, if not you wont make it thru a tank of fuel before the bell is all chewed up. I put an HPI hardened bell with a Terror spur that is in my g/friends ST and it was chewed up in no time. I think that the pitch is different than most others also. Good luck

Status: offline 		as a matter of fact I do, DUH. did'nt even think of that. I replaced my super tiger .27 in that POS Evo I have with one of those .25's. It runs better now than it ever has. smaller engine but faster. It runs hot like the super tiger though, I wonder if it is because of the way the engine sets way down inside of the frame? What do you think BB?

You are going to ask me about one of these 25s? I think I just gave away the last two I had. It is no secret that I do not have a very good working relationship with these engines. I agree with you though, air flow is extremely important for any of these higher rpm small engines. That 25 is capable of screaming! The one I did play with was pretty impressive. BB

I have been running Hpi hardened vented bells without any trouble. I would share a link to where you can buy them but the RCU Nazi thread police have been deleting my posts lately. Try a Google search for HPI77104 or Hpi 77104 BB

Status: offline 		What wt shock oil do you guys use? I would like to improve the handling of my Tower Terror and am wondering if 40wt shock oil is a good choice? I have also heard that the Trinity Xxtra Heavy Spring Set T/E-Maxx would work on the Tower Terror shocks. Here is a link to the product page: Trinity Xxtra Heavy Spring Set T/E-Maxx
