big block revo...HELP

fitzboy3 · 09-03-2009, 07:10 PM

hi im new to the forums, and ive been working on a BB Revo for a few weeks now, and all thats left is suspension clearance. i installed a go engines .28 6-port, and a 7mm offset rear arm, and the pull start wont clear the suspension by about 2-3mm, other than a starter box, what are my options?? any thing that would fit?? anyone done this before?? ...i used the traxxas BB kit. i can post pictures if someone tells me how to.

Some motor mount are not pull start friendly.

Can you make it fit , using a dremel or something like that?

The only other option is a roto start, I think they have a thinner back plate. I converted my revo to a bump start when i went with the BB.

You may want to post this question in the MT forum, might get more help there.
