Here are some pics of my tornado xp's:

1. upgrade your 2 speed clutch bell to: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=001135084&I=LXCLR2&P=K + http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=001135084&I=LXDHM0&P=K + http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=001135084&I=LXCLR9&P=K
you may need to widdle away a little of the upper plate post so the gears clear it

2. if you want more low end touque use this clutch bell: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=001135084&I=LXM730&P=K you will loose top end speed with this but have much low end take off

3. upgrade your single speed clutch bell to: http://www.clermontmotorsports.com/servlet/Detail?no=200 or this place: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXLST9&P=7

4. upgrade to this clutch spring traxxas 4146x : http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0095p?FVSEARCH=4146x&FVPROFIL=++&search3=Go


Will the single clutch bell listed in #2 work without any additional parts? The reason i ask is because there does not appear to be a lip inside the bell for the bearings to sit when it is put onto the engine shaft.

Status: offline 		yeah i fixed the c-hub problem...just dont worry about it......a little force and some model glue fixed everything

this is about the manifold: did you say to bend the pipe holder literally or loosen it up from the screw and push it back some? i dont have any tools to reach to the nut thats holing the holder dwon.

Status: offline 		Ehroof,

If I purchased the SH .18 engine from Redcat as an upgrade to my Tornado BB, would this be covered under the Redcat engine replacement program if it were damaged or broken during use? I could not find any clauses that state YAY or NAY. What is your take (being a Redcat dealer et al..) I may need to ask Darin at Redcat? Thank you in advance.
