iam getteing one soon can i get some tips to do for the build

for me, all i did was to stretch the string 5% to 10% longer with the same spring rate.
Currently, i'm running on 37.5wt on front and 35wt on rear.

anyway, broke 2 front arm again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what have i done!!!!!!!!!???????????? hahaha

Start at page 20 and skim. With only 10 posts per page, it doesn't take that long.

Essentially, follow the manually carefully, reading everything and look at every pic. Take time with your shocks and diffs. The ball cups that come with the kit are very weak, so replace them with RPM or your choice during your build. Other than that, car is great and race ready. No upgrades needed.

i had a 44.1 kit and loved it a lot is this much beter?

Looks nice! Now if they only stayed so clean and perfect...

Had a 44.1 as well. I really like this new kit more. The shocks, longer chassis, and better slipper just make it a great upgrade all around. Seriously doubt you'd be disappointed.

yea, I bought one and I really like it. I made sure my wing holes barely fit around it to make the wing have less flex.

What would be a proper gearing for an 8.5 motor?

On the stock 81 spur, if you have a decent straight on your track, start at about a 22 or 23 and check temps after 5 minutes, etc. I've been running 81/22 on my 7.5 for a while now, and my motor temps are completely fine, even after 10-15 minute practice runs.

Ok.cool, thanks

I run 22/81 with a 7.5 reedy with timing advanced a bit on the can. Motor comes off at 145 after a 8 minute main

I run 19/78 with a 7.5. Temped between 100-110 last time I ran it ( had the epa at 90 though).

5.5 Reedy 19/81 I am going to try the Reedy 4.5 with the same gear. Temps are 150 with the 5.5. I will follow up on how the 4.5 runs.

+1 and if you encounter a specific question, hit us up.

I just received mine. Even if it's performance neutral, it's worth the aesthetic improvement.
