I just put in the .21 and it has plenty of power and good mileage. :nod:

One bit of advice though. Make sure you have a strong glow igniter! I had a bleeping hard time getting it to start, it would turn over but not fire. After trying three different igniter's (2 were brand new and fresh charge) I noticed that the coil of the plug would only be hot half way up. When I tried a buddy's igniter, who runs the GRP, the coil lit up like a Christmas tree. The igniter was one of the non-replaceable battery, orange body with a meter ones.

Hello guys,
does anybody knows if is possible to use the new body on the "old" 8T ?

I would like to decrease my engine temp not spending 700usd :-)

Thanks

I highly doubt it.

one reason is because of how much longer it is. You would probaly have o hack the rear of the body up prety good to get it to lign up.

the other is that the rear of the body, mounts alot lower on the shock tower. So you would have to get the 2.0 tower and body mounts. I don't think the new rear tower would work with the standard(shorter) rear shocks so it probably wont fit.

decreasing engine temp isn't all that it is cracked up to be anyway. Running an engine too cold can hurt it as much if not more than runninh it too hot. Also chances are, that if you are having heat problems with the origional body, your tune is off anyway. There should be no reason for a hot engine in the 1.0 body.

after looking closer you are correct JAMMINKRAZY...those rear mounts are like the buggy's...but 2 of them...so ya unless you had the rear tower and body mounts it would look kinda rediculous all jacked up. :lol:

Losi-Racer - I do those for Phillip, along with a lot of other racers: Todd Hodge, Casey Peck, Billy Fischer, Tyler Vik, Rich Infanti, Jonny Wachter, Anthony Mazzara and a bunch others. I own Vinyl Graphics Unlimited. IF you send me a photo of your body I can make you pretty much any wrap you want. you can email me [email protected]

Gary does an awesome job!! I highly recommend him to everyone. He can match any paint scheme. Often his vinyl work looks better than the original paint job!!!:nod:

+1 on Gary's work. Doesn't get the press because he doesn't go around all of the forums spamming his work. No mass production here if you want custom with chrome etc he is your man.

Hey Gary i sent you an email yeaterday, Just wondering if you got it.

Anthony it came through today at 4:12pm. Why do you want cut decals instead of printed? we print most fluorescents along with Chromes ( Silver, Gold, Red & Blue ) and tons of other spots. Also no photo attachment were sent. I have cataract surgery this wednesday but, the date shouldn't be a problem unless I miss more work then I expect.

Would the printed ones look like the cut ones. If you can print the colors then ill just have you print them. And I think the first email was to the wrong address. will send again

Thanks

yeah I think they usually look better then cut decals, maybe Rich or Casey can post a photo of their stuff. we laminate so all decals are fuel proof

I also agree a .21 is all you need in truggy especially the Losi. I have drove both GRP's and really prefer the .21's

Ok sounds good. Just do them how you do Casey or Anthonys stuff. So the Flo. Orange, purple, chrome. will look good then.

I haven't seen your paint scheme, but I think it should look ok
