Exactly what I was looking for. I didn't have a problem with my motor mounted 5mm forward, but the only thing that bothered me was the motor getting too hot because it wasn't in direct contact with the heatsink.

So far, I like how the car feels with the motor moved forward 5mm. I'm waiting on a prototype chassis. Basically it drastically moves the CG forward. Ideally this would be perfect for stock racing on high bite carpet races like the Birds and Cleveland. Along with that setup is a new main shaft I'm having cut as well as a new rear input shaft.

Nice find tekin, looks like it has some minor changes. I see the topdeck is alittle different than then 04. But i really cant see anything else besides that.

Anyone the exact difference between 04 and 05?

most likely a one-way... a spool would even be nicer...
