Default pivot block spacers

Before I start assembly.
I will be running on smooth high bight asphalt.
Any suggestions on pivot block spacing?

Downforce: The Losi hubs need to be reamed out a bit. I used a 7/16" drll bit as it was all I had. Not the best though, it was a little big. The grub screw took out the slop mostly, but you might have to try a wire sized drill, they have a finer sizing. MIP losi or AE axles fit right up to the HPI bone. You will need the Losi bearing, it is an English measurement. But i have switched to an evoIII block........

Also the EVOIII "b" block will give 1* of toe when used in place of the rear f/r block. The block is 2mm taller than the HPI, so I did remove 1mm of material with a file. Hara's seup uses a 1mm spacer under the mount so that was good. It came out really good, i just took my time and kept measuring both sides on a glass table to make sure it was even and flat. The "c" or "d" blocks should give even less toe, which could be helpful for the front.

Well, here's my pro4 at the moment. I'm still waiting for a battery to arrive and get the body painted.
