Status: offline 		The only mods that I had to do were make the holes that the diff drive cups come out of on the sides a weeeee bit bigger just so that the bigger hpi cups didnt rub on the diff and they take just a bit more shimming to get the mesh right. And if your going to put the hpi drive shafts from the transmission to the diffs you can put the drive cups right onto the redcat tranny stubs. You just have to grind the cups that go onto the diff down just a tad so the screw pin fits through the pinnion hole. and whalla!!!! or you can bolt the mt2 crown gear onto the stock redcat inner diff cup and just use the redcat bevel gears the only thing you cant do is use the hpi crown gear with the redcat pinnion gear the pitch it not the same on the two. Thats the best way to do it or if you use the entire hpi diff assembly then your going to have to change the controle arms and put the hpi mt2 18ss cvd's (hpi has a 7mm ball redcat has a 6) and so on so its just not worth it (thats what I did) so in other words I have a "tsunami" at heart but so far its mostly mt2 parts in the drive train. If you have any questions feel free to ask man I just kinda gave you the quick once over deal lol there is going to be more to it when or if you try to do these mods lol But I do recommend putting at least the hpi mt2 18ss final gears in it less mods that way.

Status: offline 		I drove all the way to the track just to find out that my tires are banned from it because they "chew too much" lol that why I bought them so they would chew and destroy I dont think they would do that much dammage but what do you do I guess.

I love the sound of a blower man I was going to put a turbo on my 1968 chev truck but I wanted natural HP so I went with a 383 stroker with 11:1 KB pistons AFR heads 225 cc runners and 64cc chambers comp 290 550 cam and so on. I want to get 12 ish e/t's at the drag strip no faster tho I dont want a harness or roll cage. My grandfather bought the truck new so I want to keep it almost stock. My s 10 on the other hand.......... was not so stock
