w/e the original maker of this list measured with caliper's if i remember correctly...line up what the stock sheet says to the stamped alum stock plates and you'll see why its wrong...or a little off i should say.

Default gearing

Two questions about 8T 2.0:

What extra parts the package includes (springs, sway bars, clutch springs etc)???

For the beginning I will use an Losi/Mach 26SS - 3port (LOSR1001) with Dynamite 053 pipe and standard 50T SG. What clutch springs to use with original flywheel/shoes and what CB? 14T, 15T 16T??? I will run at a medium track, about 120-130 ft straight.

Thanks!

Can you run a mugen clutch { flywheel,shoes,springs} on the losi with using the losi clutch bell and bearings on the truck and buggy? thx

Yep... I ran a Mugen clutch for a while on my 1.0. You may have to do some creative shimming to get the clutch bell / spur to line up correctly.

The top blocks on the KHZ engine mount can be turned around to place the engine farther forward, as well... Good option for those who want to use a different clutch / bell setup.

I use a mugen flywheel on my 2.0 truggy and xray on buggy and run vp clutch shoes with losi bells and use the Losi 1x peice mount in the std position so it doesnt angle the o.s carb to much due to motor being more forward and didnt have to shim to much and bell doesnt run to forward on the spur.

I use to run 13/48 in my 1.0 8T and it was very good. Try the 48 you might like it better.

X2...imo 50T is too high. the newer truck does not justify the gearing they include....it works...but would work alot better on a 48T imo....but then again...a little weaker bottom ended .21 might benefit from the gearing.

All depends on what kinda track you run on also. See I run mostly on small to medium sized tracks. I don't need the lil' bit of extra top end that the 48t has. The 50t provides alot more bottom end punch which in my situation is what I can benefit from. I really like the gearing of the new truck. But if you were running on a really big track, I guess the 48t might be better or if you were running a .28.
