Default O.S. V SPEC HELP PLEASE!

I am putting in an O.S. V Spec t into my jammin x1 cr and I need some help with what motor mounts, flywheel, clutch set up would be good for this. If any one is running an O.S. in their x1-cr or knows what would work it would be a big help to me.

The stock X1CR clutch and flywheel work well for me, otherwise, there are many other expensive clutches that will work such as the Orion CV6 or the Fioroni sliding clutch and the RMV automatic. Try the stock one first, if you don't find the "punch" you need, inquire about these three other clutches.

Hey there.....just asking something really quick. If the jammin buggy comes with a set of motor mount plates which sit under the actuall blocks that the engine mounts too? In my kyosho's....there are the blocks that bolt right to the bottom of the engine and then there are two small 1/8" plates that fit between the bottom of the mounts and go between the mounts and the chassis.

First thing i would do is replace the bearings. I lost a v-spec due to bearing failure.
