Right now the only way to put the long upper arm setup on the car is with the 3277 front end brace. The 3277 is made for the width of the Gen-X 12 front end, so it has to be modified to work. Just...

I know that in oval racing, 7.4 lipo 21.5 and 4 cell NiMh 13.5 are very close in lap times. I'm not sure how well this info applies to 1/12 road though.
