Default transmmission for xp

ok i bought the xp upgraded all that was said to upgrade but it looks like i didnt have the motor and trans spaced properly, and it ground down the teeth on the spur gear, now im thinking, ive read alot of people seem to like the 2 speed but have also said it is alot more work, should i replace the transmission with a single speed? or should i stick with the 2 speed, if so what spur gears should i get? thanks for the help

you need these gears for the tornado 2 speeds: http://www.clermontmotorsports.com/s...le-gear/Detail and http://www.clermontmotorsports.com/s...le-gear/Detail .

if you want the single speed, get this, i have it in one of my tornado's: http://www.clermontmotorsports.com/s...als/Categories its a direct fit and everything is included to do the swap.

for some reason, the 2 speed dont shift all the time, i have replaced my shifter a few times already on my 2 speed redcats
