has there been any talk of big bores on the truck or will this just be for the buggy and truck shocks to come later?

There will be big bores for the B4*, B44* and T4* platforms. I don't know if all the shock lengths will arrive at the same time, but that's the hope.

The Ghea pistons have a taper to them, and therefore change the pack of the shock in one direction, much like the tapered 8th scale pistons. I found them to be much more forgiving on landings than the standard #2 pistons. I think I talked Ben into getting them .

I found them here.

With a Reedy Sonic last year, I ran 31-33 pinions and 93 or 96 spurs. That was with a fan. I suggest starting at 31/96 and check temps every couple of minutes while you're working out the final gearing

Is that 64 pitch. Because 48 pitch won't fit if you gear it that big?
