You're probably right. To answer that question, no you won't be able to use the LCG bulkheads on any of the existing SD chassis(Maybe on the SDW, not sure). The bulkheads use different mounting holes, thus the need for the new chassis included in the conversion.

Yep, just grind or file down the edge to get it fit like that.

Sorry if this has already been asked before, anyone know how much the LCG conversion will cost? Because I have a black special and want to update without spending too much.

Is there a company that makes an aluminium spool for the SD?

Try hitting Randy Caster, he's a member on here, he had some custom spools made, maybe he can give you a contact.

my bro just fitted the Pro4 spool on the SD..worked fine..but after a day of racing...it was useless... wears out too fast..I'd stay with Speedtech's lightened steel one.

Default SDW replica! YES!

Hi everyone!

I'm very happy to say that I've managed to find my dream chassis, the SDW!

I just want to know if there's anything special to know when building it

I cant wait to see how efficient is the drivetrain, is better than the Pro4?

I have a TC4 at the moment and I'm fairly happy with it, I hope I'll be more impressed with the SDW, it will be a big change on the quality of the materials used on the car!

Any tips and tricks on the building/handling on the car would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Has anybody tried these input shafts? Will they fit work with the SSG drivetrain?
