yeah the lightweight outdrives are on my shopping list too, but i'm not sure if i'll bother with the heatsink motor mount. I still need to get a Ti screw set, I always seem to forget to order it...lol

Are you prefering the evo 4 to the 415 then?

It's kind of flavor of the week type of thing..and I have found that the 415 feels better on high bite tracks..but my lap times are very close with both cars either car is a good one

PAT-22x is the part number

The only down side to the new sus conversion that I see is that the 950 bearings are way to small and can get damaged quite quickly if you hit something hard I still prefer the larger bearings..weight is not to much of a issue on this car... I have been using the conversion for over 10days now and I like it quite a bit, it seems on transitions is were the new arms reallt shine
