Dont know about the slash, but the tqracing/teamc bigbore fit well. Im using them for my carpet setup. They can share the losi springs and piston. And they are on sale at amain right now

I have a spare shorty pack still sealed in the box if someone wants one. I would sell it for 100 shipped in the USA.

It's a pretty tight fit. I'm gonna say you need the kit servo horn...

30t pinion with the stock spur has worked well for me, running boosted RSPro/17.5 Redline combo. Stock gears are 48p.

Quick Q for you e ball diff guys. How do i know when i need to rebuild? I have 3 race days and a long day of practice on my ball diff and maybe another day from older owner. But my diff still feels real smooth. How do it tell when to swap the balls and re oil etc etc?

Depends on what track your running at, ask some of your local guys what they are running. I try and gear so my car tops out a little before the end of the straight away.

I started with a 27t at Milestone Raceway and was way under geared for their long straight. Changed to a 29t but haven't made it back to try it out yet.

You could probably use it but the first hit it takes it's going to jump teeth. So therefore it is not a good idea. They make different tooth horns for a reason.
