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?
