LOL, WOW, I actually have the exact same clutch shoe setup. I just got the shoes in the mail, still waiting on the springs! Im using a 18T and 12T clutch though.

I use the Losi ones, which are the same thing, with 1.1 springs on my LST2. Going on all most 2 gallons through them with no problems. You wont regret buying them.

same setup here on my Mugen. Though they do slip a little more than the stock aluminum shoes, they last 2-3 times as long as the stockers. also, they allow you to do away with the shim under the shoes, whoch, IMO, makes the flywheel last that much longer. I will never buy different shoes for car...unless conditions warrant carbons.

Slipping slightly more or a lot more? Or just noticeably more?

well, they don't slip to the point that you will say "damn, these shoes are slipping" ...so i guess you would say they don't slip THAT much more...lol. They are ALOT harder than regular 6061 or 7075 shoes.

sweet! yea just walked in the door from racing 2nite. they worked damn good. I really like this combo (1.0 sp.- 13t clu. bell) course the o.s. speed speaks for itself fo sho!! this engine is a damn monster my fellow buggy freaks! I also through in a bazzar diff. oil combo. 1-5-5 and hooked up well. The MBX6 needs to hurry up!!!!:sneaky:

Yeah, I have a .28 LRP in a buggy, it goes pretty damn good too, almost too much power, impossible for the tires to hook up.

I've been engine shopping lately. A friend of mine has the LRP 28 and that thing is a rocket. So it's being considered in my top 3 selections so far.

They are harder then 6061, but they cant be harder then 7075 since they are 7075 :) I work with 7075 aluminum its great stuff.

Crim3Wav3 05-04-2008 08:33 AM

i believe they have something else thrown in the mix...or are they pure 7075???
