Default Using A Short Shaft (Crank) Engine With My XXX-NT Adam Drake 1

I just bought an engine off ebay, the seller said it had a standars shaft wich is what I need. I got it and found out its a shoft shaft.

I dont have my original flywheel or clutch nut so I dont know if it will work. If it does I need to order that stuff.

Does anyone know it it will work?.. maybe it will thread on a few threads and I can just threadlock it on?

Thanks

Really. from an assoicated (did you mean losi?)

I actually have a associated clutch nut that came with my engine, it has an actual nut on it, that one does not work because the threads dont start right at the input of the shaft for the nut, it does not reach when I have my XXX flywheel on the engine. (I found my old flywheel and there is about three threads sticking out past the fly wheel. I think with some loctite it will work as long as the clutch nuts (really just a shaft) threads start right away.

The one I used last on a short shaft was a 7603 and there is one more that also works on different applications. I'll try and find it and edit this post on tuesday if my heart surgery on Monday doesn't kill me [&:][:@]
