BTW, my TC3 runs great except for one additional thing. I race in a very competetive class so I run some very hot motors. The problem is that even with my diff fairly tight the plastic outdrives can at times melt from the temp of the diff rings. I've ordered IRS aluminum outdrives and I think they'll work fine. Anyone have any experience with these or other solutions they've used?
I do like the aluminum outdrives over the plastic ones, had the same trouble with the diff rings in the plastic drives melting the retention notches so the rings would slip around. I use the Niftech units but either ones will require the use of either the IRS pin drives or the Niftech pillow drives. If you do not use either of those the round steel pin in your cvd will gauge the aluminum in the outdrive fairly quickly creating a lot of slop.
