This may sound crazy but can you compare the B5 and B4.2 clamping hexes?

I wish 4670 was in stock. Looks like a great fix!

I ordered from Tower before I got the kit last week and just received them.

just got done building my kit, I'm going to be running in the stock class with a 17.5 reedy sonic and was wondering what a good starting point for gearing would be. I have the 72 tooth spur installed just not sure where to start with pinions? Thanks for the help

Manual suggests 31/69 for 17.5 blinky. So maybe 32-34 with a 72

I ran 34/72 with Tekin Gen 2 timing at 30 degrees. There's plenty of room for more gear or more timing depending on the track.

I ran 69/33 in my 4.2 and that is what I am running in the B5 on Wednesday.

Where at Tower are you finding B5 parts? I clicked on the parts listing and only a few items are showing up.
