Post Heat sink

I would go a 58 tooth spur and 19 tooth pinion to start with. You can always gear up if you need to. You could also try the heat sink with the built in fan.

Default Upper deck

It's not TCS legal but the Evo III upper deck goes on with some minor modifications. We put one on an R just to check.

Adam,

I think Tech makes one, but I couldn't find it on-line (Rainbow Ten, Speedtech) the last time I looked, although that was several months ago. I think you should embrace the chassis flex!

Does anyone know where I can get some aftermarket rubber sealed bearings for the TB-02 ?

Thanks.

Adam,

Looks good. I guess you're not embracing the chassis flex then. Are you running tomorrow at the "C"?

Thanks.
