We dont have a part number, or a price yet. All speculation at this point.

Rumors are there is a an updated SS coming out with the 3 speed and a .28. There was a guy over at Savage Central that said an hpi tech confirmed it was true, so I guess it is just a question of when.

i would think in the range of 100-120, cause a complete MGT gearbox is 110, and the 3 speed is a complete gear box with an extra gears.

its all just speculation, but i heard it was a kit that would re use some of the stock tranny equipment.

Not really sure its worth the additional headache of it all....

yes i kno, it was in an article in one of the RCCA editions, its all the gears you need to replace each gear in the gearbox plus the extra speed, it may be a kit, but the pic should it all assembled in and was held all together in a box, i would take the stock gearbox housing

mammoth is 52mph out of the box, ... the savage will get a 10% speed increase... thats 40 mph, its not enough to justify the price....
