I'm not sure what other brand motor mount is a direct fit like you want but what about milling the stock V5 motor mount plate thinner to move the motor closer to the center? You could remove 1.0-1.5mm from the motor side and still have a structurally sound motor mount I would guess.

I did find this http://supertec.wordpress.com/2010/0...e-2010-update/
If I remember correctly the 417 motor mount was promoted as being thinner by 1mm + to move the motor closer to center than it was on the 416 chassis. So we are talking about moving it in even more than that.
Craig M, where does the Yokomo motor mount place the motor compared to the V5 Tamiya mount in relation to the center line of the chassis?

Try clicking on each highlighted box. It will display what the setting is for that item. Won't however, stay open if you click on the next item. If you go to PetitRC.com in another folder, you can transfer the setting info to it by clicking back and forth and print it.

I'm not sure about this modification TBH. I remember seeing a video of Hara talking about the new TCXX and he said they had better results moving the motor further out compared to the TCX
It's fine on my laptop, but I have that problem on iPad with the editable sheets. Maybe Jay can save as jpeg?

Personally I would go with something of a better quality though like the Reedy Chassis plates as they are Tamiya quality.
Only $60 from Speedtech just the deck will be stiffer at 2.5mm thick vs. 2.25 for stock 417x chassis. http://www.speedtechhobbies.com/inde...roduct_id=2201
The V5 chassis plate is available for about $80 but it will also be a little stiffer than your 417x chassis plate was, and you will need the $30 TRF center servo mount too or some shoe goo to mount your servo. Lots of choices!!
