Thanks!
Hi Brian, I do use set up gauges on my car but i modified my touring car ones to work. Im not going to say that it is necessary at all but they are nice.
yup the 108905 is the system and i think you might need the 108928 shim as well for the rear axle's

I'm working to make sure I keep my Reedy 4.0/5.0 and HW 3.1 cool for our last 2 series races later this year.
The best fans that i have found are the Superior hobbies one's, the R1 wurks ones and the Gravity RC fan. i feel that the performance of all three are virtually the same, R1 and Gravity are almost the exact same. At Reedy, Marc, Victor and Christopher all went home with one of those three fans and seemed impressed by the flow of them all. I would definitely suggest getting one of those three if you don't already have.

thanks
