The 170SBL's are great servos, also the nice thing about this is you have one spare for both positions in your car. I do not like the 170T's to slow.
Also the SBL is newer more energy efficient tech the the regular 170T. the BL's are a brushless corelesst tech that uses less power, is smoother and various other things.
What are you using for a throttle return spring? I'm thinking of using an exhaust manifold spring just in case I loose battery power. I am running the 170TBL the servo horn is really hard to turn with no power to it.
