Also, with the 3700 Teemu Chassis, is there any problem using 3300's in it, they don't sit too low or anything?? As I still have a few 3300's left to use but imagine in not too long will have all 3700's?

Thanks

The raised drive train increases dogbone plunge into the drive cup and raises the CG for more weight transfer. The increased plunge should reduce on power traction but its effects are minimal. The higher CG make the car roll more for more weight transfer/traction.

The Teemu towers have all the holes moved down 2mm to compensate for the diff riser plates.

The 3300's fit in 3700 slots just fine if your cells are not glued together. If they are they will ride a bit higher than the 3700's.
