The Tekno kit is by far the most advanced...it has the motor mount, battery tray, and new chassis. It uses an electric clutch which I believe is more suitable for nitro drivers because it gives the delay of power and allows use of brake bias or you can go with the direct drive.

I really like my www.rcproductdesigns.com kit. I have been doing really well with the car. The customer service is the best and the quality is even better.

RCPD and Rc Monster parts are great for the 8ight-T. The spur is already offset for good balance so the stock chassis works well. Both RCPD and RC-Monster use bulkhead attached motor plates so chassis flex doesn't cause gear mesh problems. This is one concern with the Novak and Tekno conversions. The Tekno conversion also requires special pinions if you don't want to use their clutch system. Novak's limits you to Novak motors.

Guys we have a treat coming in the near future. At my local track Matrix Concepts has a new conversion for the losi. I was Beautiful!!! Carbon chassis with lexan underytray saddle pack style with 2 Reedy 5000mah packs in the rear. It even has a tray that the batts sit in. It uses there own carbon top plate to stiffin down the middle. They said they are a month away. This thing looks like a large scale electric 4wd. It only uses Losi f/r suspension. The car was not blistering fast, Truhe drove it t the end of racing last nightIt handles some sections better than his buggy. Well balanced.......I can't wait

+1 I've been running the Tekno for 2 1/2 months with the same clutch bell and bearings. Finally replaced the shoes yesterday. Great kit.
