All the gears are .8 module. The pinions are smaller (fewer teeth) but still .8

minimising spare part cost

I have lots of mtx3 spare parts like clutch shoes and these things don't wear after 6 months use.

I just realised that i may have made a mistake.. i paid SGD$599 for the kit

So when i check with the on-line converter it should have been USD$354 to be exact.

oh i manage to squeeze in the MTX3 prospecs's engine mount
the engine bay area is very tight.!!


sorry for the lack of photos.. will post it up tonight.

IF THE ENGINE MOUNTS ARE THE SAME AS MTX3'S I SWITCHED FROM A 8MM FLAT HEAD TO A 12MM FLAT HEAD ON CHASSIS AND WENT DOWN FROM 8X12MM TO 8X10MM ON THE ENGINE AND WENT OK, I SUPPOSE THAT I'LL DO THE SAME ON THE MTX4
