For those of you who have a MBX6R, or have the E0185 aluminum rear arm mount, have you guys figured out the combinations for the inserts? You get three: A, B and C. Looking at the diagrams, it tells you what combinations gets you what, but it doesn't really specify the letter of the insert. Inserts A and B could be the same. Only the C insert with the notch in the middle can't be confused with the others.
Am I missing something obvious?

I use the fioroni and in it you can put whatever engine, I have spare engine mounts on 3 engines ( nova P4, OS,Alpha ) and all fit perfect.
I have a personal idea of what should be customer service and when I send an email to a shop or a brand and they feel like not answering, I then feel like not giving them my hard earned money.

mbx6 swap mbx7 drivetrain
centre diff........................
Front Rear.............................................. .
helical vs straight cut gear
mbx6 diff gear set fit well inside mbx7 diffcase
also fit well inside gearbox case without any modification...
before. mbx6
after. mbx7
Gain some improvement but not too much... character and feeling also change a bit...
Quicker acceleration smoother entering and exit the corner...
Fuel Run-time - Not testing yet..

shajohan, nice work man, thanks a lot for sharing, please tell us more about the upgrade, i've heard lots of good things with the x7's handling, and if the gearing contributes most of the improvements over the x6, then what you've been doing might save a lot of cash for the x7 just for better performances. And of course i'll also go this route for a smaller budget(cuz i don't have the budget for the x7, hehe).

Why don't you sell the X6 and get the X7. It's cheaper than upgrades all those parts.
