Default 8ight T flywheel Dia?

I'm trying to get a clutch together for my sons Jammin X2 CRT with a werks B5 (thanks to RayA for the free motor). Anyways, I'm thinking about going with a Losi 8ieght T clutch and would like to know what the diameter of the flywheel is. Apparently the stock flywheel in an X2 is 35mm, so I'm assuming that I would need something around that size so I don't have problems engaging the starter box wheel.


Thanks

i dont think a losi clutch will work for you, losi clutch is a little longer than a regular clutch, clutchbell may hit gas tank, or bell will be to close to spur, not 100% sure, someone will let you know forsure shortly im sure!

Isn't the length of the clutch end of the crank shaft standardized?

Does anyone know this if this setup won't work with any certainty?

Help me out please!!!

Its only the losi clutch bell thats 2mm longer, the clutch itself is the same width as most other clutch setups.

i dont beleive this is correct, the bell is longer, because the clutch is also.

Thanks for the offer...that's really generous.
I'm thinking that I would need the whole setup though to see if this would work.
The only reason I ask about this is that from a pure design standpoint I like the losi design better than the OFNA.

There has to be someone out there who done this or someone who's got an X2 and a losi clutch laying around who can give it a shot...PLEASE....THANKS.

Again, thanks for the offer.
