LOL, i was going to buy an OS
but the guy at my LHS said that it would be to much power and i would be striping the spur gears ( I think thats what there called)left and right. But i'm thinking of buying it, i think it was for $160.00. Is that a good price.
$160.00 is WAY TOO MUCH[X(]Shop around a little.Just google O.S. CVRX.18,and youll see what they go for.As far as this being too much motor,ANY motor,including stock is too much for the funfactor in stock config.Gear strippage was one of the main defects of the funfactor in stock config but has nothing to do with the engine power[X(]Luckily our friends at CEN have been listening and have come up with a fix
They now offer upgraded hardened steel spurs and hardened steel pinions to match[>:]These new gears should allow you to attach all the motor you need and then some[:-]Good luck however you decide to go.I do feel your pain.Some VX engines run fine,but some will run hot no matter what.Like I said before,The O.S.CVRX.18 is a blessing from god for the funfactor.Good Luck
