Default sorry for the dumb question im new

I'm looking to buy the OFNA Picco JL Racing .12 Red Dot Engine. It says is rear exhaust does that mean the tune pipe goes in the rear or could it go on the side. I have a serpent 720 09.

rear exhaust means the exhaust port exits on the reverse side of the carb, which is the intake side. So the header would be on the side of the car. If it were a side exhaust engine, the the exhaust port would exit to the rear of the car.

Can someone give me the dimensions of the big bearing which goes in to the WC clutch?.

I bought the clutch assembly from a friend to use it in my NT1 but the big bearing misses and it's a bit hard to measure the dimensions of the bearing.

5x10 is the larger inner bearing, and the 2 smaller ones are 5x8mm

Always go to the site from a well known racer on our MACH track.
http://www.abc-rc-shop.nl/
On the right you see the exploded views, and you can find every information you want there...
But probably you won't find this specific infomation there off course (Murphy's law)

Can you tell how 'thick' the bearing is, my guess is 5x10x3, but i'm not sure.

Well Murphy's law applies to this situation, nothing to be found
Probably because it's the optional clutch.

The silver colored then the black which is the pad. So its metal pad then pad metal. The pads will be inbetween the disk

The original centax 3 uses 5x10x3, that's why i guess they re-used those bearings. Below is the serpent number for the item.
1315 Kogellagers 5x10x3 (2)
