oh and thanks for all the help with shock socks

no zach, its not a direct fit, thats a .28 and much larger than the stock .18 and wont be a direct fit.

the sh.18 is a direct fit. http://www.redcatracing.com/itemdeta...tno=sh18engine

i ordered a few parts thursday the 17th. its the 24th and im still waiting. does it just take redcat a while to ship? or is that odd?

and also i need a video of what the volcano sounds like when its tuned perfectly. i think i did mine alright, but it just doesnt sound tuned perfectly yet.

i dont really know about your shipping but a week doesnt sound that bad, they were in the process of moving into a new place and shipping was to be caught up by monday the 21st.

much better and if you trade in the engine using the engine replacement program it will be less than $50

What I think the zip ties are for on the head is when the thing rolls over it don't scratch up the head ? I could be wrong, but it really sounds like a good ideal which I'm going to do
